Summary: |
Computer-based simulation has long been used to project the behavior of systems too complex for analytical calculation. Simulation has also been used for many decades to enable human visualization and learning about complex tasks such as aircraft piloting and process plant control, and the versatility and cost-effectiveness of these training simulators are widely recognized. |
