Abstract	Welcome to the 16th meeting of the Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Simulation, jointly sponsored by the ACM, IEEE, and the Society of Computer Simulation. We meet this time in Northern Virginia near Washington, DC. It is a pleasure to welcome all the attendees, authors, invited speakers, and guests, and we hope that you will have a memorable and stimulating time at this conference.As we meet for the 16th time, we can pause to reflect on what we've accomplished since the mid-1980's. We held the first meeting in January 1985 at the Bahia Hotel in San Diego's Mission Bay, aboard a boat moored in the harbor. Among the attendees at this year's conference, Fred Wieland (one of the GC's) and David Nicol (our tutorial speaker) were both present at that first meeting. Back then, optimistic and conservative parallel simulation were a gleam in the eyes of the inventors, having not been fully implemented in any real system. Since that day, we have seen major projects use both techniques; healthy debates over which technique is better; the birth of hybrid risk-limiting strategies; and much more.We have also seen parallel simulation technology implemented in major military systems; in civilian transportation simulations; in biological applications; in telecommunications; and indeed, in many other venues. The definition of "time management" in the US DoD's High Level Architecture (HLA) standard borrows many ideas from this group. There are even commercially viable products that incorporate parallel simulation technology. How far we have traveled since 1985!Yet at the same time we stand at a crossroad. Parallel synchronization, one of the prime subject domains of this conference, is considered a "solved" research problem. While there are undoubtedly some optimizations and clever algorithms yet to be discovered in this area, as we look forward we envision a different world than what existed in 1985. While synchronization may be a less fruitful venue for research, the broader area of "simulation technology n has yet to be defined and yet to have a clear research mandate. It is possibly in this area that future PADS conferences will contribute much value.Welcome to the sixteenth ACM/IEEE/SCS Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Simulation. This year we are pleased to have Paul Fishwick from the University of Florida and Peter S. Magnusson, President of Virtutech Inc., as our keynote speakers. Also, the conference has 7 sessions of technical papers, one panel discussion and the traditional work in progress session.Twenty-nine papers were submitted to PADS 2002, and subjected to an extensive double-blind review process. Over a very short period of time, a total of 108 reviews were returned, with almost all papers receiving at least four reviews, with at least two from program committee members. A program committee meeting was held in Washington DC in December and after much debate, 19 papers were eventually accepted for publication and presentation at the conference.
