“lecture of discrete simulation”

This text provides a basic treatment of discrete-event simulation, including the proper collection and analysis of data, the use of analytic techniques, verification and validation of models, and designing simulation experiments. It offers an up-to-date treatment of simulation of manufacturing and ... More

This textbook, for students of engineering, computer science, or management, provides a framework of knowledge that allows them to develop a sound understanding of the fundamental concepts, building blocks, and methodologies of discrete-event system simulation. The third edition has been reorganized... More

The underlying technologies enabling the realization of recent advances in areas like mobile and enterprise computing are artificial intelligence (AI), modeling and simulation, and software engineering. A disciplined, multifaceted, and unified approach to modeling and simulation is now essential in ... More

The two unique benefits of Concurrent and Comparative Discrete Event Simulation are: speed, which is usually 1000 to 10 000 times faster than conventional discrete event simulation; and methodology, which permits the concurrent/comparative simulation of many thousands of experiments. One idea is tha... More

"While serving at a church in 2005 I began to dream about publishing an anthology of poetry written by Lutherans. After personally contacting 28 Lutheran colleges, 8 Lutheran seminaries, and almost 8,000 Lutheran congregations, the poetry submissions poured in by the hundreds, making my dream a real... More

Discrete Event Simulation is a process-oriented text/reference that utilizes an eleven-step model to represent the simulation process from problem formulation to implementation and documentation. The book presents the necessary level of detail required to fully develop a model that produces meaningf... More

This volume introduces computational and mathematical techniques for modeling, simulating, and analyzing the performance of various systems. Helps readers gain a better understanding of how systems operate and respond to change by: 1) helping them begin to model, simulate, and analyze simple-but-rep... More

Discrete-event simulation consists of a collection of techniques that when applied to a discrete-event dynamical system, generates sequences called sample paths that characterize its behavior. The collection includes modeling concepts for abstracting the essential features of a system, using special... More

Object-Oriented Computer Simulation of Discrete-Event Systems offers a comprehensive presentation of a wide repertoire of computer simulation techniques available to the modelers of dynamic systems. Unlike other books on simulation, this book includes a complete and balanced description of all essen... More
