Abstract

There continues to be many advances in the theory and practice of Modeling and Simulation (M&S). However, some of these can be considered as Grand Challenges; issues whose solutions require significant focused effort across a community, sometimes with ground-breaking collaborations with new disciplines. In 2002, the first M&S Grand Challenges Workshop was held in Dagstuhl, Germany, in an attempt to focus efforts on key areas. In 2012, a new initiative was launched to continue these Grand Challenge efforts. Panel members of this third Grand Challenge present their views on M&S Grand Challenges. Themes presented in this panel include M&S Methodology; Agent-based M&S; M&S in Systems Engineering; Cyber Systems Modeling; and Network Simulation.
