------------------------------------------ ****** NOTICE: NEW MAILING LIST ********** ------------------------------------------ on S I M U L A T I O N GENERAL: There has not been a news group on the topic of simulation, so I have decided to start one. Actually, it is a mailing list and if it grows into a popular forum then we can formally apply to have it made a news "group" (which apparently requires votes,etc.). TOPICS: All topics connected with simulation are welcome (no flaming please!). Some sample topics are listed: real time simulation methods flight simulation parallel architectures for simulation analysis and modeling simulation and training distributed simulation artificial intelligence and simulation automatic generation and analysis of models analog vs. digital methods, hybrids continuous, discrete, and combined methods qualitative modeling application specific questions theory of simulation and systems queries and comments about available simulation software announcements of simulation-related talks and seminars graphics and image processing in simulation HOW TO JOIN: To participate in the mailing list you need to know two net addresses: simulation@fish.cis.ufl.edu - for sending topical mail messages simulation-request@fish.cis.ufl.edu - for subscribing/unsubscribing to the list (administration) METHOD: At first, we will operate on an automatic mode (unedited list): All mail sent to 'simulation' will be forwarded automatically to everyone else on the list. My SUN is strictly acting as a mail handler. As interesting topics come up and more people chip in, then I will try my hand at moderating the list to form a digest which will be shipped periodically. I'm sure that most net readers subscribe to both kinds of these mailing lists already. So let's go! Paul Fishwick University of Florida
