This paper discusses recent developments in simulation research, current direction, as well as how research interacts with practice and software development. Among the methodological research areas considered are modeling techniques, generation of random numbers and processes, and statistical design and analysis. Projections for future research are made, and ways in which practice can both benefit from research as well as help guide it are discussed.
