At the end of every simulation experiment, compact discs with series data and summary data are made. Series data are variables recorded many times each second. Summary data are collected at the end of each run and include variables such as the conditions at the start of each run and selected minimum and maximum values. Up to 1300 variables each can be collected for series and summary data. This information can also be made available periodically during the simulation.
Some researchers make audio-video recordings.
A head-up display can be included, if used. The data display monitor can also be recorded, and a video camera sometimes records the pilot's actions. The VMS Lab provides numerous flexible tools for visiting researchers to control, monitor, and record simulations. This page is maintained by Scott J. Malsom and modified by Kathleen Starmer .
