Intelligent S I M Ulation Tools for Mining Large Scientiic Data Sets Intelligent Simulation Tools for Mining Large Scientiic Data Sets

This paper describes problems, challenges, and opportunities for intelligent simulation of physical systems. Prototype intelligent simulation tools have been constructed for interpreting massive data sets from physical elds and for designing engineering systems. We identify the characteristics of intelligent simulation and describe several concrete application examples. These applications, which include weather data interpretation, distributed control optimization, and spatio-temporal di usion-reaction pattern analysis, demonstrate that intelligent simulation tools are indispensable for the rapid prototyping of application programs in many challenging scienti c and engineering domains.
