Computer simulation is now widely recognized as a powerful tool and
useful method at the current stage of research in space plasma
physics. The expected role of computer simulation is to bridge the
existing gap between theories and experiments/observations and to
give a profound physical insight into highly tangled and
nonlinearly coupled space plasma phenomena. One of the goals of
space plasma physics in 1980's and 1990's is to elucidate the
quantitative causal relationships of global and local energy flows
in space plasma environment and establish the space plasma physics
via cooperative studies among three important elements of
observations, theories and computer simulations. Based on such
recognition, Dr. M. Ashour-Abdalla (UCLA/USA), Dr. R. Gendrin
(CNET/FRANCE) and both of us met together at the 20th General
Assembly of URSI at Washington D. C. in 1981 to discuss what we
should do and what we could do, reaching a conclusion that it is
time to establish an International School of Space Simulations
(ISSS). The objectives of the ISSS thus organized are firstly to
educate and stimulate graduate students and young sCientists,
secondly to exchange information on updated simulation techniques
and thirdly to have mutual discussions among observational,
theoretical and simulational scientists in the field of space
physics. The first ISSS were organized by Prof. P. Coleman, Prof.
T. Obayashi, Dr. H. Okuda in addition to the above four members.
The first ISSS was held at Kansai Seminar House in Kyoto from Nov.
I to Nov. 12, 1982.
