Peer reviewedThomas, William E. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1983
Discusses four phases in the development of a simulation. These include a definition of the simulated universe (including parameters and boundary conditions), mathematical description of the mode, and programing and testing the simulation. Also discusses the development of a physics simulation, focusing on each of the four phases. (JN)
