Winter Simulation Conference 2024 highlights the value of simulation for imagination work, that is, the work of system designers, creators, and innovators. The advent of modern simulation models and Digital Twins, powered by AI/ML, the Internet of Things, and advances in statistics and optimization, can provide unprecedented analytical insights for designing, planning, and operating complex systems. These sophisticated modeling and analysis tools promise to shift the economic value of human capital from analysis and rationality to creativity and imagination. We invite papers that emphasize the latest advances in simulation theory and applications showcasing the power of simulation for imagination and creativity. We particularly encourage applications of simulation to imagine and create new and improved systems in a wide range of domains, including but not limited to aviation, disaster response, education, energy, finance, healthcare, infrastructure, manufacturing, national security, space systems, and supply chains.

Winter Simulation Conference 2024 will continue the tradition of including pre-conference workshops, introductory and advanced tutorials, commercial case studies, poster sessions, and the Ph.D. Colloquium. It will also host the 20th International Conference on Modeling & Analysis of Semiconductor Manufacturing (MASM). 

Winter Simulation Conference 2024 will be held in Orlando, Florida from December 15 to 18, 2024. The Orlando World Marriott Center features outstanding comfort and style, just minutes from the hottest attractions, entertainment, and dining options. Join us in Orlando for the leading conference in the field of simulation!
