چکیده

Modeling and simulation stakeholders (government, industry, and educational institutions) firmly believe in the role and importance of educating and training (professional) simulationists. However, there does not exist a consensus on the what, how to, and why type questions pertaining to “disciplined” education and training. In this paper, we suggest a strategic approach for establishing modeling & simulation as an undergraduate degree program within the higher education system (universities). We discuss three fundamental elements (i.e., Body of Knowledge, Curriculum, and Accreditation) believed to be essential for transitioning the existing unstructured education into a recognized discipline by an appropriate accreditation board such as ABET.

Data Envelopment Analysis with LINGO Modeling for Technical Educational Group of an Organization

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was developed to help compare the relative performance of decision-making units. It is a non-parametric method for performing frontier analysis. It uses linear programming to estimate the efficiency of multiple decision-making units and it is commonly used in production, management and economics [3]. DEA generates an efficiency score between 0 and 1 for each unit...

Using Hierarchical HMMs in Dynamic Behavior Modeling

This paper is concerned with the modeling of the behaviors of players operating in competitive environments that are characterized by interactions amongst players or group of players. Thus the development of a new, on-line, hierarchical, probabilistic behavior modeling system architecture that is based on Discrete Hidden Markov Models (HMM-D) is presented. For the purpose of integrating multipl...
