Modeling and Simulation

Modeling and Simulation (M&S) is being used worldwide by military, industry, and academia as a technological enabler to enhance training, analysis, and acquisition activities. A Simulation consists of the operational environment surrounding a model (e.g. simulations); communications; networks; architectures; standards and protocols; and information resource repositories.

Modeling and simulation is a virtual world with real world physical properties and attributes that is designed to provide real world results in a controlled environment. Modeling and simulation is a cost effective means to play out scenarios with a set of parameters that can be modified to facilitate comparative analysis of each modeling and simulation result.
