M&S Research Collection
The university library maintains
an extensive collection of research related
to modeling and simulation science. This unique
compendium—you
can find it here—contains the majority
of IST's modeling and simulation publications.
The collections are supported in part by
generous annual donations from G.
Vincent and Beth Amico. Mr.
Amico is a former Director of Engineering and
Director of Research for what is now known as
NAVAIR TSD,
the NAVAIR Training Systems Division, Orlando,
Florida. He is credited with over half a century's
involvement in the world of simulation and training
and was the first to use a commercial digital
computer in a simulator. Vince is an active Coordinator
of Industrial Affiliates, School of Electrical
Engineering and Computer Science, University
of Central Florida, and a member of the boards
of directors of the National
Center for Simulation and the Institute for
Simulation and Training. Vince Amico in 2004
received an honorary PhD in Modeling and Simulation
from UCF.
IST honored Vince for his contributions, which
made possible construction of a new reading
room to house the research collection. Go here to
read the story. The reading room underwent
yet another refurbishment to make it more
convenient for study, small class sessions,
presentations and other small group gatherings
when IST's larger classrooms are occupied.
In 2006 IST moved the Amico collection to temporary
storage in the Partnership II building, where
the collection awaits further cataloging and
reorganization.
Enumerations and
Bit-Encoded Values...
We receive numerous requests for "Enumerations and Bit-Encoded Values
for Use With Protocols for DIS Applications." Updates to this
document are held in the SISO Document Library. Follow this link to access
a list of the most current downloadable files:

To get the "Final
Draft, Proposed IEEE Standard Communication
Architecture for Distributed Interactive Simulation
(CADIS)" June28, 1993, download
the (5 MB) PDF file HERE.
Last time we looked,
the original 1995 1278.1 could be found as
a pdf at
http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel1/3700/10849/00499701.pdf?tp=&arnumber=499701&isnumber=10849
The UCF library scanned and
cataloged most of IST's research publication
archives. Go to the online library listings
(start with the "you
can find it here" link
) to research titles in the M&S
subject area.
