The
following provides an overview of
the <Program Name> initiavtive...
-
Circumstance – <Modeling
and simulation technology is coherent and comprehensive
as a discipline, ubiquitous in its presence in widely disparate
application domains, and powerful in its influence for
a wide variety of uses. At the same time, modeling and
simulation is not generally recognized as a profession,
industry, or economic market segment.>
-
Concept – <Deliberate
and self-conscious investment in cultivating the M&S
community-of-practice is considered necessary and desirable
in order to facilitate the emergence of M&S as a profession,
industry, and market predicated on M&S technology in
all its disparate manifestations. Program Name is an occasional
forum – kept relatively informal by mutual agreement
- of organizations with broad interest in M&S technology,
professional development, industry and market.>
-
Mission -
<The missionary objective of the
SimSummit forum is no less than to significantly advance
the evolution of the
modeling
and simulation profession, industry, and market.>
- Goals – <Particular
goals of Program Name are:
- to
establish a comprehensive international forum of the
most significant organizations in Modeling and Simulation
- to
identify and maintain for the world-wide M&S community-of-practice
a common ‘canonical’ topical agenda
upon which cooperative effort may be focused
- to
facilitate effective and constructive collaboration
among member
organizations and beyond by means of participative events, publications,
collaborative workspaces, and shared information assets
- to
realize a truly intervisible, comprehensive, self-conscious,
and effective
modeling and simulation community-of-practice. >
-
Benefits -
<The special virtue of the Program
Name forum is to educe the very considerable degree of
common interest that exists
even among relatively disparate organizations from Government,
Industry, Professional Societies and Academia, involved
in M&S of many styles for a wide variety of purposes
in apparently exclusive application domains, and to derive
therefrom the greatest possible collective benefit for
the international M&S community-of-practice.>
