Dear modeling community,

Given the current global situation of the pandemic and the restrictions regarding traveling and organizing events in many countries around the world, including Canada, the Steering Committee and Organizing Committee of MODELS 2020 have taken the decision to run the conference fully virtually in October 2020.

Although we will not have the pleasure of welcoming you in Montreal this year, we will do our best to provide you with a virtual MODELS 2020 experience to disseminate the latest research works and facilitate interactions in the current circumstances. All papers of the main tracks and satellite events will be published in the ACM proceedings as planned.

We will soon provide further details on the platforms we will use and the necessary logistics. Keep an eye on the conference website for updated information.

We wish you to stay safe, healthy, and productive. We are looking forward to your contributions and participation.

Best regards,

______
