The Richard E. Nance papers contain correspondence, articles, technical reports and reprints, manuals, periodicals, video, and other materials documenting Nance's teaching, research, and professional service, 1950s-2004, in the field of computer simulation.
Richard E. Nance received his Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering in 1962 from North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering (later North Carolina State University), followed by a Master of Science in 1964. Nance completed his Ph.D. at Purdue in 1968 and soon established himself as a founding leader in the field of computer simulation research. In addition, he taught at Southern Methodist University and Virginia Tech, served as a researcher for the Naval Surface Warfare Center, and participated in a variety of professional activities.
Biographical/historical note
Richard E. Nance received his Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering in 1962 from North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering (later North Carolina State University), followed by a Master of Science in 1964. Nance completed his Ph.D. at Purdue in 1968 and soon established himself as a founding leader in the field of computer simulation.
Nance taught at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, before moving to Virginia Tech where he served as the Director of the Systems Research Center. He also conducted research for the United States Department of Defense, Naval Surface Weapons Center on a variety of projects including the Tomahawk cruise missile and UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles).
In addition to research and teaching, Nance served on several editorial boards and as associate editor for several journals. Nance initiated the establishment of and served as the first Editor-in-Chief for the Association for Computing Machinery journal Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation (ACM TOMACS).
Nance was born in 1940.
Scope/content
The Richard E. Nance collection contains correspondence, articles, technical reports and reprints, manuals, periodicals, video, and other materials documenting Nance's teaching, research, and professional service.
Arrangement
The collection is organized into four series: teaching and research, professional service, collected publications, and audio/visual materials. The materials are organized topically or by type then chronologically within each series.
Use of these materials
The nature of the NC State University Libraries' Special Collections means that copyright or other information about restrictions may be difficult or even impossible to determine despite reasonable efforts. The NC State University Libraries claims only physical ownership of most Special Collections materials.
The materials from our collections are made available for use in research, teaching, and private study, pursuant to U.S. Copyright law. The user must assume full responsibility for any use of the materials, including but not limited to, infringement of copyright and publication rights of reproduced materials. Any materials used for academic research or otherwise should be fully credited with the source.
This collection may contain materials with sensitive or confidential information that is protected under federal or state right to privacy laws and regulations. Researchers are advised that the disclosure of certain information pertaining to identifiable living individuals represented in this collection without the consent of those individuals may have legal ramifications (e.g., a cause of action under common law for invasion of privacy may arise if facts concerning an individual's private life are published that would be deemed highly offensive to a reasonable person) for which North Carolina State University assumes no responsibility.
