Many simulation models include elements of human decision making which present some difficulty to the simulation modeller. It is often difficult to determine how a human goes abou...
This paper discusses Simphony as an integrated environment for building special purpose simulation tools for modeling construction systems. Simphony provides various services that...
The integration of optimization and simulation has become nearly ubiquitous in practice, as most discrete-event simulation packages now include some type of optimization routine. ...
Discrete event simulation has long been recognized as a valuable tool for manufacturers, but converting the recognition of value into an embrace of the technology can be a challen...
This paper presents a simulation study carried out to solve a problem of manufacturing process reengineering. The specific company in which the study took place is a medium size m...
