Re: Need for the committee
Another important reason for the need of credible practice guide is the alternative of not having one. Without credible practice guidelines models will have adoptions issues. If there is no set standard, good models may be rejected because of novelty. Moreover early technology adopters who experienc...

Re: Link between credibility and statements of model uses
Hi Tony, You have my support for this. And may I add that software and documentation will include examples of use that will be shipped with the implementation to demonstrate abilities and contribute to credibility? In other words, I suggest promoting credibility by example of immediate applications....

The Government Thinks Modeling and Simulation is Important
One visible title in the MODSIM world conference was: U.S. Congress has declared M&S a National Critical Technology . See: http://www.modsimworldconference.com/ This title came from legislation that was produced by the modeling and simulation caucus. Here is a link to the web site: http://forbes.hou...

Re: Definitions: Building a Glossary
Thanks Martin, This is another good source. Why not mix and match per definition? We can adopt the best fitting definition from any source and link to it. For example: Definition X: see ACM dictionary - hyperlink Definition Y: see DoD dictionary - hyperlink Definition Z : our own definition If we li...

Re: Definitions: Building a Glossary
Hi Ahmet, To your question, my opinion is: 1. Use Phrases or words 2. If good definition exists already - adopt and link to existing text. 3. Only if necessary - add clarification to fit our agenda We may have no time for anything more deep with the men power and time we have - unless of course you ...
