چکیده

Modeling and simulation technology is the use of models to develop data as a basis for making managerial or technical decisions. It can be a valuable tool for program managers—but it is one that is vastly under-used. This article provides a business-case framework (a methodology to evaluate investment opportunities) for program managers within the Department of Defense to use when determining how to apply modeling and simulation in project management.

Simulation of Smoke Emission from Fires in High-Rise Buildings Using the 3D Model Generated from 2-Dimensional Cadastral Data

Having a 3-Dimensional model of high-rise buildings can be used in disaster management such as fire cases to reduce casualties. The fundamental dilemma in 3D building modeling is the unavailability of suitable data sources. However, available cadastral 2D maps could be used as low-cost and attainable resources for 3D building modeling. Smoke will be a great threat to people's health during a f...
