DIRECTED ENERGY PROFESSIONAL SOCIETY


Directed Energy Modeling & Simulation Conference 2003
25-27 March 2003 Albuquerque, New Mexico

The modeling and simulation (M&S) of Directed Energy (DE) phenomena, devices, systems, and engagements is expanding in importance as DE systems are being developed and acquired. The heavy dependence upon M&S throughout the lifecycle of modern systems makes M&S critical to acquisition and operational success. In addition, because DE systems are often significant departures from traditional systems, previous experience, tactics, and strategy are not necessarily applicable to the new systems. The role of M&S can be vital to exploring the novel features of these systems so their unique potential can be fully exploited.

This conference explored the development and application of DE M&S in all these areas. The scope of the conference encompassed

  • high energy laser (HEL) and high power microwaves (HPM),
  • virtual and constructive M&S,
  • all levels of detail from basic physics and engineering through campaign levels,
  • unclassified and classified topics,
  • government, academic, and industry viewpoints, and
  • M&S technology and techniques, such as VV&A, applied to DE.

Conference Highlights

  • Classified, limited distribution, and open technical sessions
  • Short Courses
  • Evening reception
  • Government, academic, and industry exhibit booths
  • Breakfast, lunch, and break refreshments
  • Unclassified proceedings published after the Conference

Proceedings from this 2003 DE M&S Conference are available for purchase from the DEPS online store.
