| "... Ören presents an overview of sources available on the topic of ethics in general. He concludes that ethics has attracted hardly any attention in the simulation community. He strongly advises the development of a code of conduct for people working professionally in the field of simulation. Furthermore, he presents a procedure of how to compose such a code of conduct." | |

| "Interesting in this third meeting (in 1986) is that Tuncer I. Ören, while addressing quality assurance problems in simulation, introduced the concept of normative assessment. And he defines normative assessment of an element of a simulation study as its evaluation with respect to some norms of a value system which can be pragmatic or ethical, and the last one he defines as: 'Ethical assessment of a simulation study is its evaluation with respect to a set of moral codes." | |
