Transparent
Reality Simulation
Transparent Reality (TR) is a model-driven, display-based simulation modality that represents internal, abstract and usually invisible functions, processes and concepts with explicitly visible and manipulatable symbols to assist users in exploring, developing and confirming mental models. The focus is on high fidelity behavior rather than life-like appearance. Transparent also implies accessible by all, as in "transparent government". This alternative meaning also applies to TR because, as a display-based simulation, it is designed for mass dissemination, e.g., via the Web, to allow everyone to access the benefits of simulation along the ideals of "lifelong learning" and "learning by everyone, everywhere, everyday".
