This presentation was made at the NAFEMS DACH Seminar "Simulation Credibility for Decision Making" held on the 8-9 June 2021.

Is Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification (VVUQ) relevant beyond the safety related and regulated sectors? It is well known that work within sectors such nuclear power and aviation is subjected to VVUQ; however, the processes are relevant to all simulation, from hand calculation to supercomputing in all sectors. The processes demonstrate robust design; and form a solid basis for fault tracking.
