Construction operations are often repetitive not only in terms of time (the same tasks are performed over and over) but also in terms of space (the same tasks are repeated at seve...
Until the day when plant production personnel and equipment have no downtime, proper collection and analysis of downtime data will be essential to the development of valid, credib...
The problem of order release planning for a make-toorder production facility is addressed. Traditionally, order-release planning in a multi-stage shop is performed with material r...

In this paper, we describe a technique to construct accurate stochastic simulation models from acquired trace data. The resulting simulation models accept input trace data and ret...
This paper examines the construction and implementation of a simulation model that supports the design and development of the Queston Physician Network. Queston seeks to partner w...

A simulation model was developed to predict with a certain degree of probability the optimal escape routs from the coastal areas of the Rio Grand Valley. Along with that, the mode...
This paper presents the development of a flexible simulation model of the rail operations at the Tropicana facility in Bradenton, Florida. The complexity of the process and system...
This article describes how a manufacturing system with working people can be modeled and simulated, wherein the focus is on the organizational processes of the people itself. Expl...
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...
Simulation models are useful to predict and understand the impact of changes to a manufacturing system. Typical factory simulation models include the parts being manufactured in t...
