How to build better models: Applying agile techniques to simulation
For simulation practitioners, the common steps in a simulation modeling engagement are likely familiar: problem assessment, requirements specification, model building, verification, validation, and delivery of results. And for industrial engineers, it's a well-known adage that paying careful attention to process can help achieve better results. In this paper, we'll apply this philosophy to the process of model building as well. We'll consider model building within the framework of a software development exercise, and discuss how best practices from the broader software community can be applied for process improvement. In particular, we'll focus on the "Milestones Approach" to simulation development
