INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL IN COMPUTER SIMULATION
announces a
SPECIAL ISSUE
scheduled for 1996
on
NEW TECHNIQUES OF COMPUTER SIMULATION
IN THE NATURAL SCIENCES
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The OLD deadline was 1 OCT 1995. The NEW DEADLINE is 1 NOV 1995.
All submissions welcomed. This is a good opportunity to publish
the computational details of models that other journals tend to
curtail. More details below.

Virtually all traditional disciplines in the natural sciences
(physics, chemistry, biology, environmental sciences) use computer
simulation and numerical analysis in the development of theories
and models. Most of these applications are computationally hard,
requiring the use of high-performance computer hardware and
software. New algorithms and simulation techniques have been
developed in the separate sub-disciplines that are not communicated
effectively to colleqgues in other areas of science.
This special issue is being planned to report the results of
state-of-the-art research on new simulation techniques applicable
to the natural sciences. This is an opportunity for modelers in
the physical and biological sciences to relate details of their
computational approaches to a diverse audience of simulation
specialists for the purpose of cross-fertilization. Specific
topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
o Object-oriented simulation applied to continuous system
dynamics
o New algorithms and simulation techniques applied to
particle-based and Lagrangian systems
o Genetic algorithms and evolutionary programming approaches
to simulation in the physcial and biological sciences
o New approaches to simulation and model visualization,
analysis, and performance evaluation
o Innovative approaches to parallel and distributed simulation
of continuous and particle-based systems

Prospective authors are invited to submit five copies of
previously unpublished, archival-quality research contributions
by *1 Nov 1996* (new deadline) to
Dr. James W. Haefner, Guest Editor
Department of Biology

International Journal in Computer Simulation was established in
1989 and is published quarterly by Ablex Publishing Corporation
(Norwood NJ). It welcomes papers concerning any area of computer
simulation used in industry, military, engineering or the natural
sciences.
