Smith, Jr. MOM THE GENERAL CHAIRMAN The 1973 Winter Simulation Conference represents the sixth renewal of this annual conference and its first occurrence on the West Coast since December 1969. The conference has become a major focus of the discrete simulation professional community. Traditionally, the conference has served as a forum for presentation of papers on the cutting edge of simulation application and methodology as well as a platform for tutorials by leaders in the field. This year is no excep tion. The prograni committee has succeeded in putting together an excep- tionally strong technical offering. I should emphasize that conferences like this one do not simply "happen". A great deal of work mast be done by a variety of people. In addition to the writing and reviewing of papers and the organization of sessions, there is a great deal of administrative activity needed to coordinate an event of this size.I would appeal to you to get involved with our future conferences in a number of ways. I am sure that you will get even more out of the conference if you participate. Remember, the continued success of this series of meetings depends on you. I hope that you enjoy the Conference and would personally welcome any suggestions that you might have. Next year, we'll all be in Washington, and I hope to see you all there.

Simulation as a method of defining and solving problems is maturing in that major innovationshave been made and the field is now exploiting footholds which have beengained in a number of applications areas. Thus we emphasize in this sixthannual conference the applications by which we test our shared approachto model building and analysis. The of fort which has been put into thisprogram has been amply rewarded and an overview of the simulation activity hasemerged which may permit us to voice cautious optimissum aboutthe future of the field. Simulation models are producing results; theyare making significant contributions to knowledge and control of organizations. Read theseproce- edings-they are worthy of attention as a record of the currentstate of the art arid practice of discrete event simulation and the major part itnow plays in policy formation in large organizations.

On the John M. Charnes one hand, I am excited by the prospect of what lies ahead for the simulation community in the new School of Business millennium, but on the other I am saddened by the passing of Alan Pritsker, one of the leading 222 Summerfield Hall University of Kansas figures in our community. As you know, Alan received the College's Lifetime Professional Lawrence, KS 66045-2003 USA Achievement Award at the 1999 Winter Simulation Conference in Phoenix, and we held a (785) 864-7591 fax (785) 864-5328 reception for him after the business meeting there. It was a wonderful event, preceded by Alan’s [email protected] taking us through some of the notable memories of his career in simulation. Alan’s remarks were http://www.cc.ukans.edu/~charnes followed by a poignant moment when Alan stood before us with his family beside him to receive our standing ovation for his tireless work on behalf of the simulation community. Vice President/President Elect Susan M. Sanchez Jim Wilson and Dave Goldsman have co-edited a special issue of IIE Transactions in honor of Operations Research Department 273 Glasgow Hall Alan. By arrangement with Kluwer Academic Publishers, this special issue will be available to Naval Postgraduate School college members shortly. The details for distribution are yet to be worked out, but when they are Monterey, CA 93943 USA we will post the information on our website for all to see.
