Simulation123 is a not-for-profit global group to support simulation enthusiasts. Developed by Dr. James Byrne and Dr. Paul Liston from the University of Limerick in Ireland as an academic exercise, it is a centralised web-space where users can meet to discuss anything related to simulation. It is one of the first web applications to exploit Web 2.0 to support simulation.[1]
