Instructions for authors and presenters

**The deadline for full papers has passed, we are now only accepting extended abstracts.

Full papers and extended abstracts for MODSIM2023 will need to be formatted in accordance with the Word documentInstructions for authors. Please use the templates provided below.

Please note: you can submit either:

  • an extended abstract (max 1 page) or
  • a full paper (max 7 pages, including an extended abstract on the first page).
You are not required to submit any form of shortened abstract before you submit your full paper. You submit an extended abstract by itself, only if you have decided not to submit a full paper.

There are different due dates depending on what you decide to submit.

The extended abstract should be a complete description of the problem area, broad findings and outcomes or implications and should hence be self contained.

The extended abstracts/full papers will be reviewed by independent reviewers and may require revision before publication.

Extended abstracts should be formatted using the same template as the full papers, using the first page only. They can include 300–500 words, plus affiliations and keywords. A stand-alone extended abstract may include references.

Papers and extended abstracts should be submitted in Word or PDF format (if generated from LaTeX). Word is preferred.

The instructions for authors, a template file and an example paper are available in Word and LaTeX format.

Note that authors have the option to include their ORCID iD. See the examples in the templates. More information about ORCID is at https://orcid.org/

At MODSIM2023, delegates will have a choice of presentation type – oral or poster. Orals will be 15 minutes plus 4 minutes allowed for questions at the end. Posters will be displayed for the whole week, with a specific poster session to be held on Tuesday 11 July. Each delegate can specify their preferred presentation type (oral or poster), but the final decision on presentation type (oral or poster) will be made by the organisers based on the quality of the submission and the need to keep the number of oral presentations to a manageable number. It is anticipated that each delegate will receive one oral presentation with additional presentations likely to be given as posters. The maximum number of oral presentations granted will be two per person. Please note you must attend in person to present your oral or poster.
