An Updated International Survey ofComputer Models 101
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The authors wish to thank all the developers and points of contact of the
models for taking the time to describe their model in the survey. The authors
also wish to thank the members of the fire engineering community who took
the time to bring computer models to the attention of the authors. Finally,
theauthors wish to thank Vijay D’Souza for his help locating many of the
references for the models.
