ICCS Workshops on Multiscale Modelling and Simulation

In 2017 I chaired the 14th ICCS Workshop on Multiscale Modelling and Simulation. The next one will take place in June 2018 in Wuxi, China, as part of the ICCS 2018 conference. Paper submission deadlines are typically around the end of the year, and we also provide the possibility to give an abstract only presentation! For more information, please don't hesitate to drop me a line or await further announcements on the main page.

Science Hackathons

We've organized three highly successful Science Hackathons, where interdisciplinary groups of researchers attempt to write a draft paper within a concentrated effort lasting approximately three days. For more info, please see the Science Hackathon paper.
