Introduction to Unique Domains of Modeling and Simulation.
Mastering Simulation is the best
introductory course on the breadth of modeling and simulation. It provides
an overview of each of the major categories of simulation applications
that have evolved over the last 300 years.
The links below provide a sample of the introductory material for the
course. This Internet version is made with Shockwave for fast web delivery
- which means lower resolution. The original content of this course provides
higher resolution graphics and audio. If you would like to purchase a
