There has long been a competition between simulation and optimization in the modeling of problems in transportation and logistics, machine scheduling and similar highdimensional p...
Developments in simulation methodology have been so successful that simulation methods are used in many different domains, and many of these applications are based on discrete eve...
Evaluation of user interface design is usually based on usability testing methods. In this paper we analyzed and described the user behavior in the form of the user model. The use...
The parametrization of business games benefits from the usage of a multi-tier architecture and software services. This paper shows that the multi-tier concept supports parametriz...
OLE Process Control (OPC) is an industry standard that facilitates the communication between PCs and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). This communication allows for the testin...
