许多不同类型的建模和仿真（M&S）应用程序，由软件，硬件和人性化的组合组成，用于数十个学科的不同目标，包括采集，分析，教育，娱乐，研究和培训。通过进行验证、确认和认证（VV&A）来认证M&S应用程序的足够准确性需要多方面的知识和经验，并对研究人员、从业人员和管理人员提出了重大的技术和管理挑战。只有通过使用非常广泛的方法并扩大我们在VV&A中的视野，才能应对这些挑战。本文提出了应对这些挑战的13个战略方向。战略方向为成功的VV&A研究和实践提供了指导方针。
Many different types of modeling and simulation (M&S) applications, consisting of a combination of software, hardware, and humanware, are used in dozens of disciplines under diverse objectives including acquisition, analysis, education, entertainment, research, and training. Certification of sufficient accuracy of an M&S application by conducting verification, validation, and accreditation (VV&A) requires multifaceted knowledge and experience, and poses substantial technical and managerial challenges for researchers, practitioners, and managers. The challenges can only be met by using a very broad spectrum of approaches and expanding our horizons in VV&A. This paper presents 13 strategic directions to meet those challenges. The strategic directions provide guidelines for successful VV&A research and practice.
