DIRECTED ENERGY
PROFESSIONAL SOCIETY
Directed Energy Modeling & Simulation Conference 2005 |
|
14-17 March 2005 |
Tampa, Florida | |
|
|
|
The modeling and simulation (M&S) of
Directed Energy (DE) phenomena, devices, systems, and engagements is expanding in importance as DE
systems are being developed and acquired. This is especially true now that several DE systems are
entering the formal development and acquisition process. The heavy dependence upon M&S throughout
the lifecycle of modern systems makes M&S critical to transition and acquisition success.
