Applied Modeling and Simulation describes an integrated process for designing, developing, operating, and maintaining models and simulations to support mission objectives. The book emphasizes the use of sound principles from system engineering, describes the processes and tools needed to create effective products, and provides broad insights to applying modeling and simulation creatively. This book speaks to widely varying audience of individuals and groups. Engineers and program managers will find what they need to work effectively with designers and developers of models and simulations. Policymakers, decision makers, and researchers will discover an understanding of the design and development process from multiple angles. Designers and developers of models and simulations will gain a sound big picture perspective of the entire process leading to the creation of the best products. Students, just entering the discipline, will find a necessary guide to surmount steep learning curves presented in the modeling and simulation market.

This book will be of interest to engineers in program management and other disciplines who need to understand issues associated with modeling and simulation for the development and operation of space systems. The first portion of the book explores general issues in modeling and simulation, essentials of obtaining an appropriate model and a computer simulation based on this model, and how simulation-based acquisition using these principles can yield superior space systems. This is followed by chapters on the engineering of space system life-cycle phases. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
