About the Author

Jim Ledin, P.E., is an electrical engineer providing simulation-related consulting services. Over the past 18 years, he has worked on all phases of non-real-time and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation in support of the testing and evaluation of air-to-air and surface-to-air missile systems at the Naval Air Warfare Center in Point Mugu, Calif. He also served as the principal simulation developer for three HIL simulation laboratories for the NAWC. Jim has presented at ADI User Society international meetings and the Embedded Systems Conference, and has written for Embedded Systems Programming magazine and Dr. Dobb's Journal.

Synopsis

This work describes the methods of dynamic system simulation from the ground up. It presents important techniques, the fundamentals of mathematical models, how to produce useful results, how to analyze and visualize data, and how to verify and validate models. There are step-by-step instructions for developing working simulations, and the author discuss determining when simulation is appropriate, managing the cost of simulation and communicating results.
