Recent years have seen great interest in the use of Java as a language for developing computer simulations and in the development of methods that utilise the inherently distribute...
Based on the DIS result, the HLA framework has been defined to achieve interoperability of independent simulators. Concurrently, and for the most part, independent of that effort,...
Process oriented views are widely recognized as very useful for modeling, but di cult to implement e ciently in a simulation system, as compared to event oriented views. In partic...
This paper discusses a methodology for quickly investigating problem areas in semiconductor wafer fabrication factories by creating a model for the production area of interest onl...
Parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) decreases a simulation's runtime by splitting the simulation's work between multiple processors. Many users avoid PDES because ...
Mercedes-Benz United States International (MBUSI) built a manufacturing facility for the production of the new M-Class "All Activity Vehicle" (AAV). This plant consists ...
This article presents the results of research to develop a descriptive model of firm-level productivity that will allow a myriad of factor interactions to be directly accounted fo...
The relationship between the High Level Architecture and web-based simulation is discussed. The notion of interoperability is suggested as a binding force between these initiative...
We consider a new simulation-based optimization method called the Nested Partitions (NP) method. This method generates a Markov chain and solving the optimization problem is equiv...
