About the 2026 World Science and Technology Development Forum

To build global consensus on open, trusted, and collaborative development in science and technology, advance the creation of an internationally competitive environment for open innovation, and accelerate the development of strategic emerging and future industries, the 2026 World Science and Technology Development Forum will be held in Chongqing, China, from October 21 to 23, 2026. With the theme “Co-Evolution: Shaping New Ecosystems for Future Industries”, the forum will feature multiple parallel sessions.

Parallel Forum: Scale and Content

The Simulation Technology Parallel Forum, themed “AI-Driven Development of Future Simulation Technology”, will be held on the afternoon of October 21. The parallel forum is jointly organized by the Asia Simulation Federation, Beihang Hangzhou International Innovation Institute, and Chongqing Society of Artificial Intelligence, among others. The forum will focus on the deep integration of artificial intelligence and modeling and simulation technologies, bringing together researchers, technology professionals, entrepreneurs, and other experts from related fields around the world. Discussions will focus on emerging areas such as digital twins, industrial AI agents, and world models, with the aim of exploring innovative applications of intelligent simulation technology in advanced manufacturing, industrial upgrading, and sustainable development.

Paper Acceptance

Papers that pass expert review will be accepted for presentation at the Simulation Technology Parallel Forum. The Parallel Forum Organizing Committee will also recommend outstanding paper abstracts to the main forum. Following review by the Forum Academic Committee, selected abstracts will be included in the 2026 World Science and Technology Development Forum Outstanding Paper Abstract Collection.

In addition, the Asia Simulation Federation plans to host GloSim 2026 (2026 Global Simulation Conference) in Hangzhou, China, from November 13–16, 2026. Papers accepted through this submission process will be included in the GloSim 2026 Proceedings. Outstanding papers featuring significant academic value, cutting-edge innovations, or practical significance will be recommended to journals including the International Journal of Modeling, Simulation, and Scientific Computing, Complex System Modeling and Simulation, Metaverse, and Journal of System Simulation (ESCI/EI-indexed journals). The journal submission deadline is August 30, 2026.

Special Note: The submission deadline for the Simulation Technology Parallel Forum does not conflict with the submission schedule of the relevant journals. Authors who submit papers after August 10 may still submit them through the Simulation Technology Parallel Forum submission link for consideration at GloSim 2026. Papers that meet the requirements after review will remain eligible for recommendation to the journals listed above.
