Simulation for training and decision-making in large-scale control systems

This is the first of a series of short papers which, taken together, provide an overview of an important area of simulation for training. Each of these papers summarizes the history and the current hardware, software, models, and applications of simulation, and each gives a projection by an expert of future trends in a single specialized field. At the end of the series, A. Ben Clymer, the principal author, ties the pieces together and gives a perspective of the total field.
