In this paper, the selection of a BASE Case was every bit as important as the simulation itself. The production team had been familiar with simulations and had used their results ...
Tactical and operational planning for manufacturing enterprises are more important today than ever before as their supply chains span the globe. Two state-of-the-art technologies ...
Nowadays, in a hotly competitive environment, companies are continuously trying to provide products and/or services to customers faster, cheaper, and better than the competitors d...
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...
This paper documents an experiment designed to show the value of simulation in understanding the relationship between production run lengths and overall supply chain performance. ...
