SoSyM Journal-First
We have established a continuous collaboration between SoSyM and the MODELS conference in organizing the SoSyM "Journal-First" opportunity, which enables authors of recent SoSyM papers to present their work across the core conference sessions at MODELS. Through this collaboration, selected SoSyM authors have the opportunity to reach a broader audience to present their work. This also benefits the MODELS conference program by including research talks that explore more depth through analytical and empirical evidence than that can be presented in a traditional conference submission.
Papers are selected from accepted/published SoSyM papers within the previous year. In order for your paper to be considered for Journal-First, please confirm the participation for this program in step 6 of the submission process.
