To begin using simulation in healthcare, one must first recognize the types of problems or decisions that can best be analyzed using simulation. Once a problem has been identified...
Most features in commercial simulation packages are often omitted in parallel simulation benchmarks, because they neither affect the overall correctness of the simulation protocol...
This paper describes a MODSIM III-based object-oriented network simulation model specifically developed for modeling railroad operations of Union Pacific Railroad. The transportat...
Simulation is widely used for performance analysis of Personal Communication Systems due to their inherent complexity. However, resource demands (cpu-time and memory requirements)...
Emulation is the process of exactly imitating a real system. Recent advances in simulation technology make it possible to emulate real world control systems by using a system'...
Informational Macrodynamics (IMD) presents a unified informational systemic approach with common information language for modeling, analysis and optimization of a variety of inter...
Carousel storage systems are often used to increase storage density, throughput and efficiency while reducing inventory and man-hours. The Hewlett-Packard company has developed a ...
This paper compares Monte Carlo methods, lattice rules, and other low-discrepancy point sets on the problem of evaluating asian options. The combination of these methods with vari...
In this paper, we discuss the critical role of simulation input modeling in a successful simulation study. Two pitfalls in simulation input modeling are then presented and we expl...
This paper discusses how simulation is used to design new manufacturing systems and to improve the performance of existing ones. Topics to be discussed include: manufacturing issu...
