We describe the application of simulation analysis to a complex operational problem involving scheduling, sequencing, and material-handling decisions. The manufacturing process un...
In most physical queueing applications, customers join a queue and move forward after each service, leaving room for others to join behind them. Some queues found in material hand...
Manufacturing automotive powertrain components (engines and transmissions) is a complex task involving the integration of hundreds of components. Simulation is commonly applied in...
Various studies have shown that OS jitter can degrade parallel program performance considerably at large processor counts. Most sources of system jitter fall broadly into 5 catego...
Emulation is the process of exactly imitating a real system. Recent advances in simulation technology make it possible to emulate real world control systems by using a system'...
