CSS2018 is the annual conference of the Computational Social Science Society of the Americas (CSSSA), meeting in Santa Fe since 2011.

The GeoSim ’18 workshop focuses on all aspects of simulation as a general paradigm to model and predict spatial systems and generate spatial data. New simulation methodologies and frameworks, not necessarily coming from the SIGSPATIAL community, are encouraged to participate. Also, this workshop is of interest to everyone who works with spatial data.

The aim of this workshop is to bring awareness to the variety of techniques, engage in critical comparison and evaluation of the ways in which these tools are used, and examine how we should treat model selection, evaluation, and statistical inference in complex problems in archaeology.

The workshop is aimed in particular at people who conduct social simulations using agent-based modelling.
The opportunity is offered to present own research projects and to discuss them with the plenum.
Our keynote speakers are László Gulyás, William Rand and Iris Lorscheid.
