The M&S Journal is Currently Accepting Papers
The M&S Journal is a theme-based, quarterly publication of technical articles that highlight M&S technology, applications, prototype processes or products, points of view, or emerging philosophies. The M&S Journal is a valuable resource for the M&S community: across DoD, other government agencies, international partner organizations, industry, and academia. The M&S Journal occasionally publishes special issues devoted to a particular topic.
All submitted technical papers for the M&S Journal undergo rigorous peer review following an initial screening for conformance to basic requirements. Publishing in the M&S Journal affords authors both an online and print forum for their M&S technical papers, gaining recognition and publicity throughout the DoD M&S Community. Authors also receive extended visibility for their ideas through free online access to their article on the MSIAC website.
