Abstract

Simulation can be a more effective tool for the study of problems of our times if the practitioners will adopt procedures which will make simulation more a science than an art. A big step in that direction would be the development and use of a standard format that would assure adequate and uniform documentation. Such a format is proposed, and criticism is solicited.
