The process of developing and running simulations needs to become simple and accessible to audiences ranging from middle school students in a learning environment to subject matter experts in order to make the benefits of modeling and simulation commonly available. However, current simulations are for the most part developed and run on platforms that are: (1) demanding in terms of computational resources, (2) difficult for general audiences to use owing to unintuitive interfaces mired in mathematical syntax, (3) expensive to acquire and maintain and (4) hard to interoperate and compose. The result is a four-dimensional expense that makes simulation inaccessible to the general public. In this paper we show that by embracing the web and its standards, the use and development of simulations can become democratized and be part of a Web of Simulation where people of all skill levels are able to build, upload, retrieve, rate, and connect simulations. We show how the Web of Simulation can be built using the three basic principles of service orientation, platform independence, and interoperability. Finally, we present strategies for implementing the Web of Simulation and discuss challenges and possible approaches.

This research aims to find out whether a salesperson’s technical competention, sales soft capability, service orientation, and adaptive selling have any impact to improve salespersons’ performance in a case study of Prepaid Television Channel Transvision’s Salesperson in distribution area Central Java and Special Region of Yogyakarta. This research takes 102 respondents as the object and uses sampling technique.Data analysis technic that is used in this research is structural equation model (SEM) from AMOS 22 software. The test result done using SEM shows the goodness of fit full model criteria which are Chi-square = 67,203; Probability = 0,035; CMIN/DF = 1,400; GFI = 0,905; AGFI = 0,845, TLI = 0,904; CFI = 0,930; dan RMSEA = 0,063. Therefore, it can be said that the model in this research is qualified to use.  The research findings show that from 6 hypothesis being tested, there are 2 hypothesis rejected and 4 hypothesis accepted. The first hypothesis which is salesperson’s technical competency has positive impact and is significant. The second hypothesis which is salesperson’s technique has positive impact and is significant. The third hypothesis sales soft capability has positive impact but is not significan. The fourth hypothesis sales soft capability has positive impact and is significant. The fifth hypothesis service orientation has positive impact and is significant. The sixth hypothesis which is adaptive selling has positive impact but is not significant with value. This research has several limitation and gives the agenda for the further researches to be done after this research.

The survey was conducted in 2018 with 165 self-employment individual taxpayers consisting of three generations, Millennials, X, and Baby Boomers from two types of work, retail/production and services business. This study uses quota sampling to collect respondents and use ANOVA statistical tests. The results of the study indicate differences in perceptions regarding service-orientation between generations. However, there are no differences in perception related trust to tax officers between generations.
