and Special issue of System Dynamics Review Celebrating the 60th Anniversary of System Dynamics • Contributions that We seek – advance methodology for dynamic modeling and analysis – develop a novel theory to explain important dynamic phenomena – test existing theories in the field or lab – show real-world impact. • Use any modeling architecture or formalism for dynamic systems: – deterministic or stochastic nonlinear differential equations – differential games – compartment models – agent-based simulations – discrete event simulations – dynamic network models – econometric models – others • We welcome your work if it – addresses an important issue, – takes a dynamic, endogenous perspective, – captures the behavioral decision making of the actors in the system, – is rigorously grounded in data, – is fully documented and replicable, no matter what software or modeling formalism you use.
