Application of computational models to study issues in the social sciences and humanities has been undergoing rapid development during the last decades. The conference MSBC-2026 aims to create an open panel for the effective dialogue among researchers and practitioners interested in the integration of computer science in social science and humanities, for strengthening the visibility, recognition and understanding of problems of simulation and modelling of socio-economic reality.
Welcome to the conference
“Modelling and Simulation of Social-Behavioural Phenomena in Creative Societies”
Scope of the Conference
Due to its interdisciplinary flavour, this conference brings together researchers from the areas of social sciences and humanities (e.g. organizational science, communicative action theory, management science, contemporary economic science, societal complexity, sociology, media research, and others), operations research, computational intelligence, agent-based simulation, applied mathematics, econophysics and their respective fields of applications.

ABOUT PUBLICATIONS
We encourage researchers who are starting or developing their research related to computing and OR in social sciences to present their work for discussion and take part in the tutorials on the challenging topics of modelling and simulation of social-behavioural phenomena in creative societies.
Contributors can opt to participate in the conference with or without a paper for Proceedings. In case of without a paper for Proceedings, just an abstract of the talk is required. In case of with a paper for Proceedings, a short paper is required. The Proceedings of the conference will be published in Springer Conference Proceedings Series “Communications in Computer and Information Science” (CCIS).
The volume of MSBC-2026 Springer Conference Proceedings in series “Communications in Computer and Information Science” will be delivered for participants during the conference.
Payment of the registration fee is a requirement for the publication of an article.
The Award for the best MSBC-2026 Proceedings paper will be awarded at the conference.
Participants can submit full papers on the conference topics for publication in Special Issues of Eurasian Journal of Mathematical and Computer Applications, Journal of Operations Research Society of China or Mathematics.
In addition to the conference Proceedings and a special issue in the post-conference journal, a collective monograph on the subject of the conference topics will be published by a worldwide publisher. The title and content of the book will be announced before the conference.
REGISTRATION
Participants are welcome not only from academia but also media, industry and institutions concerned with computing in social sciences and humanities, complex societal methodologies and system-based modeling and space-time analysis in economics. Representatives of areas of application will have a chance to get in contact with leading experts in the conference fields, learn the state-of-the-art of research and about new academic software tools that will be applicable in the future.
