                      EXTENSION of SUBMISSION DEADLINE

                      34th Annual Simulation Symposium
                Renaissance Madison Hotel, Seattle, Washington

                             April 22-26, 2001

                                Sponsored by:
                  The Society for Computer Simulation (SCS)

                           In cooperation with:
                        The IEEE Computer Society
                ACM (Association for Computing Machinery)


The Annual Simulation Symposium is a forum for the exchange of ideas,
techniques, and applications among practitioners of simulation in industry,
government, and academia. This international Symposium is the oldest
continuously operating conference/symposium dedicated to simulation.

The paper sessions are designed to promote discussion of concepts, tools,
methodologies, and results between authors and the audience. The structure of
the Symposium also provides for a degree of collegiality and continuity in
the discussions of the various topics presented during the week.

Original contribution in all areas of modeling and simulation are welcome.
This year's Symposium is particularly seeking papers in the following
topical areas:

                o Simulation of Multiprocessor Architectures
                o VLSI Circuit Simulators
                o Simulation Languages, Tools, and Environments
                o Object-Oriented Simulation
                o Simulation of Distributed Systems and Databases
                o Simulation of Parallel Processing Systems
                o Simulation based Performance Analysis
                o Animations/Virtual Reality
                o Advances in Simulation Methodology and Practices
                o Network Modeling and Simulation
                o Simulation of Multimedia Applications and Systems
                o Parallel and Distributed Simulation
                o Artificial Intelligence in Simulation
                o Neural Network Models and Simulation
                o Web-based Modeling and Simulation
