This valuable resource provides clear, ready-made activities and guidance from leading practitioners in a range of fields, which healthcare and practice educators and mentors can use to enhance their
Simulation in Media and Culture: Believing the Hype, edited by Robin DeRosa, is an updating of Baudrillard's theory of the simulacra for our current cultural moment. This collection examines the condi
One of the most challenging issues in today’s large-scale computational modeling and design is to effectively manage the complex distributed environments, such as computational clouds, grids, ad hoc,
This book constitutes the post conference proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Enterprise and Organizational Modeling and Simulation, EOMAS 2011, held in conjunction with CAiSE 2011 in Lon
Aerospace engineer Dreier has been working on digital, analog, and hybrid simulations of helicopters, tilt-rotors, and wind turbines. He is concerned that engineering curricula are not preparing the n
This volume continues previous DLES proceedings books, presenting modern developments in turbulent flow research. It is comprehensive in its coverage of numerical and modeling techniques for fluid mec
Quantitative modeling techniques and methods are central to the study and development of process engineering, including mineral processing. Models in mineral processing have been difficult to develop
The thesis is an original and novel contribution to land use/land cover change analysis using methods of geosimulation and agent-based modeling. The author implements several traditional methodologies
The field of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has now taken centre stage in modern clinical practice. With ever changing technologies in the field of MIS, such as robotics, there is now the need to tr
Computer scientists at the Bank of Mexico hope to promote computational simulation techniques as fundamental tools for modeling financial and economic problems by motivating young researchers to devel
Computer scientists, electrical and electronic engineers, and related technical researchers and practitioners explore how simulations are used in designing and analyzing computer networks. Among the t
"Pam Jefferies and Jim Battin provide a very thoughtful, step by step approach to create a collaborative health care simulation consortium. It is inspiring to witness many stakeholders come together i
This book describes thermal plant simulation, that is, dynamic simulation of plants which produce, exchange and otherwise utilize heat as their working medium. Directed at chemical, mechanical and con
The purpose of this book is to place computer simulation studies within the paradigm of intervention research that is concerned with comparing the outcomes of health care delivered under different pol
