Abstract

This chapter reviews five important application areas to understand the nature of the problems addressed rather than focusing on the approaches to modeling and simulation employed in these instances. The five areas cover modeling and simulation challenges in urban infrastructure, health care delivery, automated vehicle manufacturing, deep space missions, and the defense acquisitions enterprise. Contrasting these domains of application leads to consideration of the crosscutting challenges associated with these examples. This chapter concludes with a discussion of specific modeling and simulation challenges emerging from this comparison.
