Agent-Directed Simulation and Systems Engineering
Presents an account of the contribution of systems engineering to modeling and simulation, especially to agent-directed simulation (ADS). This title emphasises on the application of ADS systems engineering to large and complex systems.

Complete description
This is the only book to present the synergy between modeling and simulation, systems engineering, and agent technologies expands the notion of agent-based simulation to also deal with agent simulation and agent-supported simulation. Accessible to both practitioners and managers, it systematically addresses designing and building agent systems from a systems engineering perspective.
