Eight successively refined simulation models for the earthmoving operations involved in the construction of a dam provide the foundation for illustrating the ease and effectivenes...
From the perspective of flow analysis, the more complex the project, the more wastes are prone to build up, due to the increasing number of interfaces between activities. When pro...
Typically, system dynamics-based simulations of business processes are constructed in an ad hoc manner, with a modeler creating low-level components and defining interrelationship...
The construction process is subject to an array of influences, both from internal and external environments, which makes the process performance uncertain and difficult to predict...
This paper describes the efforts required to convert conceptual designs and undefined processes for a proposed advanced steel processing shipyard facility into a discrete event si...
