Since its first issue in 1998, it has been a world-wide leading reference for readers interested in social simulation and the application of computer simulation in the social sciences. Original research papers and critical reviews on all aspects of social simulation and agent societies that fall within the journal's objective to further the exploration and understanding of social processes by means of computer simulation are welcome. Owned, managed and published by the SimSoc Consortium, the journal is published quarterly at the end of January, March, June and October on the World Wide Web with free access at the address: http://jasss.soc.surrey.ac.uk/JASSS.html. The online nature of the journal guarantees a large audience and the inclusion of multi-media content, such as animations, coloured charts and an article toolbox, enrich the readability and the usability of the papers. The journal collects readership statistics. The journal consists of three sections: peer reviewed articles, a forum and book reviews. While the first section is devoted to research articles subjected to rigorous peer review, the Forum includes discussion papers and work in progress and aims to provide a room for debates and replies. The book reviews section aims to keep the reader up-to-date about new titles in the field and to review any book that covers issues relevant for social simulation (for detail, contact the book review editor). The journal occasionally publishes the proceedings of workshops and conferences on focused topics in a 'special section'. Generally, the reviewing and editing of the special sections are undertaken by workshop or conference organisers in conjunction with the journal editor (for details see here). The journal requires authors to include sufficient information to enable readers to replicate reported simulation experiments and expects that authors take full advantage of the on-line multimedia possibilities allowed by the journal (for details see here). The audience of the journal is international and inter-disciplinary in scope. It includes researchers, academicians, students, professionals, policy makers, and software developers. Editorial Policy The refereeing of submissions is managed by the Editor through rigorous double-blind review. Each submission is reviewed by at least two referees selected by the Editor according to the submission topic. The referees might be members of the editorial board or ad hoc specialists involved for their expertise on the submission topic. The journal has an average time of 10 weeks for the refereeing. Thanks to its on-line nature, that does not impose the traditional page limit per issue, it can guarantee the publication of accepted papers in the forthcoming issues. Abstracts/Indexes JASSS is indexed by the Web of Science SSCI and Current Contents, is included in OAIster, in ibss, the International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, and in RePeC, Research Papers in Economics, and is abstracted in Sociological Abstracts. ISI Journal Citation reports ® Rankings: In 2009, JASSS was 13th of the 68 Interdisciplinary Social Science journals listed by the Social Science Citation Index. Impact Factor: 1.234 (2008) 1.55 (5-year) JASSS is managed using the EPRESS journal management system and acknowledges the contribution of the Department of Sociology, University of Surrey, England in providing a web server and file space for the journal. Instructions to Authors Original research papers and critical reviews on all aspects of social simulation and agent societies that fall within the journal's objective to further the exploration and understanding of social processes by means of computer simulation are welcome. Normally articles are from 5,000 to 8,000 words in length, plus hypertext attachments. Briefer accounts of work in progress are invited for the Forum section. Commentaries on papers in previous issues of JASSS, of not more than 2,000 words, are also welcome. All contributions should be accompanied by bibliographic information (the title, author's name, postal and electronic address, and affiliation; and a biographical note of about 100 words), an abstract not exceeding 300 words, and up to 6 keywords. Review and copyright Research papers are always peer reviewed by expert referees. JASSS does not publish non-refereed research articles and requires authors to declare that their submissions have not and will not be published elsewhere. Authors are required to assign copyright on their articles to the journal. Submission of a paper to the journal is taken as acceptance of this policy. Replication Authors are strongly encouraged to include sufficient information to enable readers to replicate reported simulation experiments. We recommend uploading documentation and the (pseudo) code of your model to the OpenABM model archive. This model archive requires a description of the model that enables others to understand its purpose and structure, and to replicate your results. To upload a model, you first need to be a member of the OpenABM model archive, in order to avoid spam submissions. You become a member by creating a new account. After you have become a member, you can add a model. The system guides you through a sequence of steps that asks you to provide relevant information, such as references to publications, the documentation of your model, the files with model code, which programming platform is used, etc. The archive suggests using the ODD protocol to document your model, but this is not a requirement. The Forum The Forum is the area of the journal for: accounts of replications of significant social simulations. Submissions will be reviewed and judged on normal academic criteria, with the exception of novelty in the broader sense, that is: relevance, significance and soundness. Reports of replications should include: missing/resolved simulation details; confirmation of results; disconfirmation of results; set-up/parameter sensitivity; simplifications; small changes/extensions that significantly change the results; statistics concerning replication; new methods for replication; replication difficulties/problems. Positive as well as negative results should be included. descriptions of software tools, software libraries and simulation programs. Articles should indicate the benefits of the systems described, if possible using one or more examples, in comparison with other similar systems. comparative and evaluative reviews of software. discussions and responses to earlier articles published in JASSS. announcements of significant developments of interest to the international JASSS readership. Contributions to the Forum are reviewed, but not subject to the same rigorous refereeing process as research articles. Submissions for the Forum should use the same format as for article submissions (see below). Special sections JASSS occasionally publishes collections of papers sharing a common theme, in a 'special section'. The papers in a special section are often derived from the presentations at a workshop. Often some of the reviewing and editing is undertaken by the workshop organisers in conjuction with the journal editor. If you would like to suggest a special section, please email the editor with details. There is guidance on how to submit papers for a special section which should be noted before you propose one. Submission format Articles should be submitted in electronic form, as either a Microsoft Word file with separate illustrations in PNG, GIF or JPEG format (preferred) or as plain text with HTML tags to indicate headings and sub-headings, tables, quotations, and hyper-text links, using published articles as a guide. The submission should include a list of references (formatted as below). It is helpful, but not required, if you also submit an anonymised version of your article, suitable for sending to referees. The Editorial team can provide advice about formatting and about linking in multi-media elements. Articles in HTML should conform to the HTML 4.01 standard, and must be checked with the HTML validator before submission. Preparation using Microsoft Word If using Microsoft Word, avoid using bookmarks, in-line maths using the Equation Editor or MathType (see below on how to insert equations), internal hyperlinks, cross-references and tables of contents, since all of these special features will have to be removed before formatting into the JASSS house style. Submit the original Word file (.doc), not a file generated using the Word "Save as Web Page..." command. Preparation using LaTeX If you have a document prepared using LaTeX, you can convert it to HTML using an excellent suite of tools created by Stuart Rossiter of the University of Strathclyde, UK. JASSS is indebted to him for letting us provide his tools for JASSS authors. He has prepared a User Guide. The tools can be downloaded as a zip archive from here. The review process Research articles will be refereed 'blind', that is, the referees will not be given the name of the author. Hence articles are anonymised by the journal by deleting the author's name and affiliation from the article text before being sent to referees. Please ensure that the body of the article does not include obvious 'give-aways' (e.g. "in previous work, I developed a similar model (Gilbert 1999)"). Any such clues to the referees will normally not be altered by the editorial team. Referees are asked to respond to the following questions: What is your overall assessment of the article? Please outline briefly and for the editor alone your reasons for reaching this assessment of the article. Please provide some constructively expressed feedback for the author, designed to help them revise or rewrite the article for this journal or another. Your comments can be anywhere between a paragraph and something much fuller, depending on what you think appropriate to the particular article. If the article describes a simulation model, is there enough detail provided for the relevant output from the model to be replicated by a reader (the description might be in the form of an algorithm, pseudo-code, or access to the simulation program itself)? Has the author sufficiently taken advantage of the opportunities available through electronic publication (e.g. access to program code or data; colour illustrations; animations)? If not, have you any suggestions that could be forwarded to the author? Normally at least three referees are approached for an evaluation. Once the referees have commented, the editor will decide whether to accept the article as submitted, request minor revisions, request a major rewrite, or reject the article. Authors can expect to receive the editor's verdict about eight weeks after submission (longer if the period includes the summer or Christmas breaks, when referees are, understandably, slower in responding). The editor's emailed letter will normally include substantial excerpts from the referees' comments which can be helpful in revising and improving the article. Headings and sections Every paragraph in a JASSS article is numbered, to aid citing the paragraph in other articles. These numbers are applied when the article is formatted and do not need to be included in the file you submit. The numbering scheme consists of a major number, which is the number of the section, and then a minor number which is the number of the paragraph within the section. Articles should be divided by the author into five or six sections, each with a section heading (the section headings are indicated with the JASSS marker at the beginning of the line). Each section may also have sub-sections and sub-section headings. Ensure that it is clear which are section and which are sub-section headings in your submitted article. Do not number the sections, since any such numbering will be removed as part of the formatting process. Illustrations Figures (e.g. pictures, graphs, and diagrams) will be linked into the article at appropriate places. Please embed each Figure in the right position in the article (but do not forget to submit the graphic as a separate file as well). Captions should be provided as text. Do not put the caption on the graphic itself. Graphics should be scaled so that they are no more than 600 pixels wide. The height is not so important, but illustrations are typically about 300 pixels in height. If available, use colour (e.g. if you have several line plots on the same axes, get your software to draw each line with a different colour). Please provide all Figures both in place in your article file and separately as files in GIF, JPEG or PNG format. Tables should normally be provided as text (e.g. as a Microsoft Word table). Only when the table is exceptionally complicated or heavily formatted should you provide a table as a separate graphic. Equations, formulae and mathematical symbols Please keep greek and special mathematical symbols to a minimum. Use ordinary, roman letters for variables except where it is traditional to use greek letters (e.g. you may use π for 3.141... and σ for variance). If you do need to include greek letters and are using Microsoft Word, type them with the Symbol font. Please avoid using any symbols with a bar or tilde above them, as these are impossible to show in HTML. Formulae that are 'in-line', that is, as part of the text of a paragraph, need to be capable of being coded in HTML. This means they should not include integration or summation symbols, or other symbols that occupy more vertical space than ordinary text. More complex equations and formulae should be shown as 'displayed', that is, as a separate paragraph. Equations should be numbered sequentially through the article. Displayed equations should either be capable of being rendered in HTML, using the characters available in HTML 4.01 (most roman, greek and mathematical symbols can be represented, see the list here), or be treated as graphics (see Illustrations above) and then should be supplied as GIF, JPEG, or PNG files. Please do not supply Word files that include equations drawn with the Equation Editor or Mathtype, although you may use these tools to create equations for turning into graphics. Here is an example of the use of mathematics (taken from Nathalie Lazaric and Alain Raybaut (2004) Knowledge Creation Facing Hierarchy: the Dynamics of Groups Inside the Firm. Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 7 (2) 3 <http://jasss.soc.surrey.ac.uk/7/2/3.html>): We assume that the level of effort of each group, ei(t), depends positively on the level of activation of its organizational practice, xi(t). Thus we have: ei (t) = {xi (t)}ai, i = 1, …, n, (1) where 0 < ai ≤ 1. Citations and References You are encouraged to cite other articles published in JASSS, to help locate your contribution in relation to others in the journal (see the journal's CiteNet). References should use the Oxford style, that is: Citations in the text should be as author, date pairs in brackets, e.g. (Karpinski 1997). Note there is no comma between the author and the date. Multiple citations should be separated by a semi-colon, e.g. (Smith 2001; Jones 2002) References at the end of the text should be in alphabetical order, thus: HASTIE, R (1986) Experimental evidence on group accuracy.

Abstract and keywords All articles must include an abstract and keywords. The abstract should be 200 to 300 words long and should include a summary of all the main conclusions of the article and a brief indication of the methods used. It should not include citations to other literature. There should be between three and six keywords (or key phrases), chosen to help readers search for the article. If possible, the keywords should be selected from those previously used in JASSS articles, as shown in the Index by Keywords.The keywords will also be used as a guide in the selection of appropriate referees for the evaluation of your article. Checklist for submissions When submitting an article, ensure that there is the main file, if possible in Microsoft Word '.doc' or '.rtf' format. The file should include all Figures and Tables in their expected final positions, an abstract and a list of keywords in addition, the figures as GIF or JPG images, each in a separate file (do not include figure captions in the images). Figures should be scaled so that they are between about 400 and 800 pixels in height and width a file including a biography for each author (100 words or less), the authors' postal and email addresses and the authors' home pages It is convenient if all these are sent as one zip or .tgz archive. Submitting your article Articles may be sent to the Journal either through the web or by email. The web is preferred, since it is guarantees safe arrival and helps with providing all the necessary detail. The web submission form is at: http://www.epress.ac.uk/JASSS/webforms/author.php and includes step-by-step guidance on the submission process. Alternatively, you may send articles by email to the Editor at: JASSS@surrey.ac.uk JASSS, Centre for Research on Simulation in the Social Sciences, Department of Sociology, University of Surrey, Guildford GU2 7XH, United Kingdom. An acknowledgement of receipt will always be sent within a few days. If you do not get an acknowledgement, please enquire — email can fail to arrive. Articles are normally published in the next issue after acceptance. Editorial Board The editorial policy of the journal is determined by the Editor in conjunction with the Editorial Board.
