Most discrete-event simulation models have stochastic elements that mimic the probabilistic nature of the system under consideration. A close match between the input model and the...
In this tutorial we present techniques for building valid and credible simulation models. Ideas to be discussed include the importance of a definitive problem formulation, discuss...
Until the day when plant production personnel and equipment have no downtime, proper collection and analysis of downtime data will be essential to the development of valid, credib...
Learning Villages (LV) is an E-learning platform for people's online discussions and frequently citing postings of one another. In this paper, we propose a novel method to ra...
This paper discusses how simulation is used to design new manufacturing systems and to improve the performance of existing ones. Topics to be discussed include: manufacturing issu...
