2009

Nutaro, J., Simulation in industry and education: From 1900 until the present. This is a very idiosyncratic history centered almost entirely on my own interests and drawing substantially from sources available on the Web. The zip file includes the powerpoint slides and video files. The presentation was delivered to a small audience at the University of Tennessee in October when I was applying to become an adjuct professor.
