Foreword

¨ ren, the archetypal Renaissance man of the modeling and The work of Tuncer O simulation community, embodies the vision of M&S as the essential enabler of ¨ ren’s vision stretches widely over the whole M&S future science and engineering. O domain encompassing its fundamental body of knowledge, its methodology, its practice, and its ethics. It also includes the quality of M&S products and specific application domains such as cognitive and emotive social simulation. The authors of this tribute book pursue a few—essential—threads of the many emanating from ¨ ren’s core vision. As a consequence o
