Simulation and Wargaming

**Understanding the potential synergies between computer simulation and wargaming** Based on the insights of experts in both domains, __Simulation and Wargaming__ comprehensively explores the intersection between computer simulation and wargaming. This book shows how the practice of wargaming can be augmented and provide more detail-oriented insights using computer simulation, particularly as the complexity of military operations and the need for computational decision aids increases. The distinguished authors have hit upon two practical areas that have tremendous applications to share with one another but do not seem to be aware of that fact. The book includes insights into: * The application of the data-driven speed inherent to computer simulation to wargames * The application of the insight and analysis gained from wargames to computer simulation * The areas of concern raised by the combination of these two disparate yet related fields * New research and application opportunities emerging from the intersection Addressing professionals in the wargaming, modeling, and simulation industries, as well as decision makers and organizational leaders involved with wargaming and simulation, __Simulation and Wargaming__ offers a multifaceted and insightful read and provides the foundation for future interdisciplinary progress in both domains.

"Wargaming is a technique employed in the military, in business, and in other enterprises where planning and risk are part of the decision-making process. In wargaming, as an analytical and decision support approach, a scenario is presented in the form of a formal game. The players of the game will then make decisions based on that scenario, and these will be adjudicated by a referee. The results of that adjudication are then used to illustrate to the players of the game (and to derive insights and lessons learned), based on how effective those decisions are deemed to be."-- Provided by publisher
