Simulation modelling is 50! Do we need a reality check?
No full textimulation modelling is a fascinating research field. The techniques and tools of simulation modelling have been used to research and investigate the behaviour of various systems in a wide range of areas such as commerce, computer networks, defence, health, manufacturing and transportation. Indeed, the study of the use of these techniques and tools, and the development of new forms of these, are a rich source of research in their own right. Simulation modelling is about to reach the 50th anniversary of the development of GSP (General Simulation Program), the first simulation modelling language (Tocher and Owen, 1960). There have been several historical accounts of simulation modelling research. To complement these, we have performed a review of the recent history of simulation modelling. This study targeted three leading journals dedicated to this field. These are the ACM Transactions of Modeling and Computer Simulation, Simulation: Transactions of The Society for Modeling and Simulation International and Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory (formerly Simulation Practice and Theory). The study covered the first 6 years of this century (2000–2005) and included 576 papers. The key observation of this work was the relative lack of 'real world' involvement in simulation modelling research and an even greater lack of evidence of 'real world' benefit, arguably very alarming outcomes for an applied field. To further investigate this observation two additional surveys were carried out, one to study if real world papers appeared in the more widely known OR/MS literature (837 papers in 12 journals) and one to study if such papers appeared in Manufacturing and Logistics, an application area closely associated with simulation modelling (1077 papers in 10 journals). The results of these surveys confirmed our observations. We ask if this is the natural evolution of a field that has existed for half a century or an indication of a worrying problem? This paper reports on our findings and discusses whether or not simulation modelling research urgently needs to face a 'reality check.
South African travel writing and bias
No full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaves 92-96).This thesis spotlights the travel and leisure magazine industry within South Africa. It contends that the travel writing genre is susceptible to a number of biases, both past and present, which ultimately affect the way its overall content is produced and presented to the public. This work was substantiated through a set of qualitative interviews with key professionals within the South African travel and leisure magazine industry, as well as through a theme- based content analysis of a number of local travel writing publications. This study adds to a rather extensive line of research written on the topic of travel writing regarding a number of older criticisms of bias including 'othering', escapism, and gendering. However, it also focuses on a number of more modem biases such as direct advertising, advertorial usage, as well as the acceptance of 'freebies' and barter agreements, none of which has been given much attention in previous research. The sheer existence of these and other biases within the modem South African travel and leisure magazine industry exhibits an absolute necessity of examination into such a topic, especially given the importance and overall influence that the travel writing industry has on a country's economic standing and overall image

A Testlmnay From Wyoming.
(Extract from a personal letter.)
Supreme Court of Wyoming.
Cheyenne, Sept. 3.
Mra. Sarah M. Scofii-ld. Palo Alto,
Cal. ;..
Dear Mra. Scofleld: 1 have had
the bonor of being a member of tbls
(the supreme) court of this state
for Ihe past six and one-half years,
and became chief Justice last January. " " *
Now as to woman suffrage. We
of Wyoming have long since ceased
to bear that question discussed In
our sUte. It was greeted many
years before we became a state, aad
whea onr constltntfoo ws* adopted
ther* wa* no thought of excluding
women from equsl civil rights with
tho "sterner sex," It has so remained a part of the. constitution
since that time ?18»0) and none
have bad tfae nerve to propose or
even aaggest a chang* so far as I
know. Certainly It has never been
pat forward by any party aa an Issue In any campaign. That ought to
bo suflclcnt evidence to amount to
proof that* tho peoplo ot Wyoming
are satisfied with the results. • • '
In tbo years tbat I bavo lived where
women vo^te I have yet to learn of
tbe first Instance of an Insult to a
woman at the polls. Nor bar* our
women lost any > their womanly
qualities, or the men any ot their
gallantry becadse tho women vote.
Our women vote quite as generally
as men and take an Interest In elections; not aa ward politicians, but
as interested dttxen* In the welfare
of tfa* state. Being armed with the
ballot, they are In a poaltlon to enforce tho performance of promise*
made by candidate* In tho campalga,
which otherwise are too often forgotten or Ignored. • • •
In my opinion It is but right and
Just that they should bate a direct
voice la the making aad administer
Ing of the laws under which ihey,
equally with the men, roust live,
anil- which they help to support.
* * * From my observation I am
fully convinced tbat tbe women
themselves are benefited by tfae
right; lhat they become broader
minded snd take a more careful and
considerate view of many questloaa.
They Inform themselves oo publle
questions with sincere desire to
know the truth and to act accordingly. And when they want something real badly at an election and
fall to get lt, tbey learn to Uke It
philosophically and com* np smiling for the next round. • • •
You are right. Stay with It and
I hope you will win', and California
will bo the better for it.
Moat sincerely yours,-
CYRUS BEARD.
Men's Argument* Apply.

the same as for men's voting. Per-
hnp* tbey are somowhat stronger In

Why Not?
Stanford University. Oct. 1.
Suffrage Editor Time*: The
chief argument ln favor of "votes
for women." it seems to me. Is the
absurdity of thc necessity for sny
srgumont st all. ' Logically the burden of proof should hnvo boen on
Hhe other side. Tbe question Is not
"Why?" bul "Why not?" It Is only
because of tbelr deprivation through
a mlght-makes-rlgkt policy thai
mea bav* been forced to the "i
mallve" side of tfae debate.
Tho time Is hard upon us when
tho whole matter will seem as obvious, arid its discussion ns ridiculous, as does that.of higher education for women *• -*m now. and we
•ball smite indulgently over ^ the
terrible smount of excitement and
effort made accessary by ihe "conservatism" of tbo opposition.
THERESA RUSSELL.
Voted in Cblorsdo,
Suffrage Editor Time*: . For
some time I was a r<-»ldenl of Colorado, and It was my privilege to
vote at two Important elections:
once In Colorado Springs and once
In Denver. Tbo first was a national
elecllon, and the Coburn library of
Colorado Collects was chosen us the
polling place. All Ihe prominent
women of the town were there, and
It had almost the appearance of a
. social function.
| The second occasion was an Im-
I portent municipal election In Denver, and all residents, men an3 women alike, were urged to record
themselves on the side of clean
govern men Land against special prir
ilege*. There was widespread In
teresi In the result, aod an unusually large vote was'called out. Tbe
polling place where I voted was a
shoe shop In a respectable residence
neighborhood. It was quiet and orderly, and the business was promptly dispatched. There .was nothing
unpleasant in the plafe or Its surroundings—nothing, ln short, to offend the roost refined.
One of the flrst results of granting women tho right to voto seems
to be that tho polling places
chosen wllh' reference to that fact.
A solf-respecting woman may cast
her ballot without annoyance, or
feeling tbat sbe Is sacrificing aay
of tho traditions of the past.
If Justice, peace, sanitation and
temporance are tbe goal towsrd
which the world is moving, will the
vote* of women tend to hasten or,
retard tb* wheels of pragma*? . |
MARION BURKE. M. D.
Palo Alto, October 4.
I entertain no prejudice nor illusion aa regard* the "superiority''
of ellher sex. nor cherish any ex-
peclailon of the Immediate arrival
of a political mlllenium with lhe ex-
erciae of lhe franchise by woman.
Bnt In a real democracy there
abould be genuine equality of opportunity for all, unhampered by consideration of race or sex. Tho obligation* of cltixenship rest on sll.
The ballot Is the symbol of sueh
equality of opportunity and obligation,—as it Is also the assurance of
tbelr security. It cannot be denied
to woman on sny Just and equitable
ground. In the long run society will
reap tho benefit of woman's person-'
al, political snd economic freedom.
Por It Is not through subordination
and antagonism, but through liberty
and eo-operatlon, that human destiny is to be fulfilled.
