Summary
The capability modeling and simulation (M&S) supplies for managing systems complexity and
investigating systems behaviors has made it a central activity in the development of new and existing
systems. However, a handbook that provides established M&S practices has not been available. Until
now. Modeling and Simulation-Based Systems Engineering Handbook details the M&S practices

for supporting systems engineering in diverse domains. It discusses how you can identify systems
engineering needs and adapt these practices to suit specific application domains, thus avoiding
redefining practices from scratch.

Although M&S practices are used and embedded within individual disciplines, they are often
developed in isolation. However, they address recurring problems common to all disciplines. The
editors of this book tackled the challenge by recruiting key representatives from several communities,
harmonizing the different perspectives derived from individual backgrounds, and lining them up with
the book’s vision. The result is a collection of M&S systems engineering examples that offer an initial
means for cross-domain capitalization of the knowledge, methodologies, and technologies developed
in several communities. These examples provide the pros and cons of the methods and techniques
available, lessons learned, and pitfalls to avoid.

As our society moves further in the information era, knowledge and M&S capabilities become key
enablers for the engineering of complex systems and systems of systems. Therefore, knowledge and
M&S methodologies and technologies become valuable output in an engineering activity, and their
cross-domain capitalization is key to further advance the future practices in systems engineering. This
book collates information across disciplines to provide you with the tools to more efficiently design
and manage complex systems that achieve their goals.
