Explore the military and combat applications of modeling and
simulation
"Engineering Principles of Combat Modeling and Distributed
Simulation" is the first book of its kind to address the three
perspectives that simulation engineers must master for successful
military and defense related modeling: the operational view (what
needs to be modeled); the conceptual view (how to do combat
modeling); and the technical view (how to conduct distributed
simulation). Through methods from the fields of operations
research, computer science, and engineering, readers are guided
through the history, current training practices, and modern
methodology related to combat modeling and distributed simulation
systems. Comprised of contributions from leading international
researchers and practitioners, this book provides a comprehensive
overview of the engineering principles and state-of-the-art methods
needed to address the many facets of combat modeling and
distributed simulation and features the following four sections:
Foundations introduces relevant topics and recommended practices,
providing the needed basis for understanding the challenges
associated with combat modeling and distributed simulation.Combat
Modeling focuses on the challenges in human, social, cultural, and
behavioral modeling such as the core processes of "move, shoot,
look, and communicate" within a synthetic environment and also
equips readers with the knowledge to fully understand the related
concepts and limitations.Distributed Simulation introduces the main
challenges of advanced distributed simulation, outlines the basics
of validation and verification, and exhibits how these systems can
support the operational environment of the warfighter.Advanced
Topics highlights new and developing special topic areas, including
mathematical applications fo combat modeling; combat modeling with
high-level architecture and base object models; and virtual and
interactive digital worlds.
Featuring practical examples and applications relevant to
industrial and government audiences, "Engineering Principles of
Combat Modeling and Distributed Simulation" is an excellent
resource for researchers and practitioners in the fields of
operations research, military modeling, simulation, and computer
science. Extensively classroom tested, the book is also ideal for
courses on modeling and simulation; systems engineering; and combat
modeling at the graduate level.
