Computer simulation has become an important means for obtaining knowledge about nature. The practice of scientific simulation and the frequent use of uncertain simulation results in public policy raise a wide range of philosophical questions. Most prominently highlighted is the …
Section I addresses the scientific practice of simulation, the uncertainties involved in simulation, and the role of simulation and its uncertainties in policy advice. Chapter 2 analyses the practice of scientific simulation as a 'laboratory' and examines the four main elements …
