Dear simulators,

Before the summer period starts and all are away on holiday, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that it is that time of the year again when we would like to hear about your IBPSA-related / affiliates? activities! We would like to share your news and developments with the rest of the world through IBPSA News (October 2016) edition.
Besides the news from Affiliates, I would warmly welcome any and all articles concerning:

? software development news,

? training/seminars, and

? notable projects using simulation.
If sending software news, please also include reviews of the software by relevant independent experts. If sending an article about an activity of a relevant organisation in your country, please avoid self-promotion or advertisement (such articles will be rejected).
As in previous years, please send your articles to me at your earliest convenience, in order that it arrives no later than September 16th 2016. Thank you for your contributions, and I look forward to hearing back from you.

I wish all of you a wonderful sunny holiday break.
Kind regards,
Christina Hopfe
IBPSA News Editor-in-Chief
