• Welcome to the most recent of a series of events addressing the topic: “The Economics of Modeling and Simulation”

• These events are intended to facilitate the collegial exploration of M&S economics.  In conducting this exploratory, we should be able to crystallize our current understanding of the state of M&S economics.  We should generate products capturing current wisdom, lessons-learned, and prospective action.  And finally, we should derive value in understanding M&S economics and being better able to operate as ‘rational’ players in the M&S market.
