Reviews
From Book News, Inc. In addition to students of general and mathematical systems theory or of computer and information sciences, Zeigler (electrical and computer engineering, U. of Arizona) argues that students of any science and of business also benefit from knowing the theory of modeling. For students with a solid background in mathematics at the graduate or senior undergraduate level, he constructs a framework in which the concepts can be sketched in abstract forms and embodied in concrete modeling situations to further illuminate them. The first edition was published by Wiley Interscience in 1976; the second has been almost totally rewritten, for which task Zeigler has conscripted Herbert Praehoffer (systems science, Johannes Kepler U., Linz, Austria) and Tag Gon Kim (electrical engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Taejon).Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR

Author Information
Bernard P. Zeigler, is a Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Arizona and co-director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Modeling and Simulation. He is the author of numerous books and publications, a Fellow of the IEEE, and of the Society for Modeling and Simulation International. Zeigler is currently heading a project for the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) where he is leading the design of the future architecture for large distributed simulation events for the Joint Distributed Engineering Plant (JDEP). He is also developing DEVS-methodology approaches for testing mission thread end-to-end interoperability and combat effectiveness of Defense Department acquisitions and transitions to the Global Information Grid with its Service Oriented Architecture (GIG/SOA). Herbert Praehofer is an Assistant Professor at the Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria. He has over 50 publications in international journals and conference proceedings on Modeling and Computer Simulation, Systems Theory, and Software Engineering. Tag Gon Kim is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Taejon, Korea. His research interests include discrete event systems modeling/simulation, computer/communication systems analysis, and object-oriented simulation engineering. He is a senior member of IEEE and SCS, and a member of ACM.
