Abstract :
In response to a request from the WSC Foundation and the WSC 2010 Program Committee, we review and slightly revise our survey of the history of simulation up to 1982, with special emphasis on some of the critical advances in the field and some of the individuals who played leading roles in those advances. Documenting the history of simulation remains a work in progress on our part, and we encourage individuals and organizations in the simulation community to bring significant historical data to our attention.
