Opis

Simulation modeling is becoming increasingly popular as a technique for evaluating the performance of resource allocation and alternate operating policies. It is a cost-effective method for improving process performance and can be used to evaluate the performance of capital equipment before investments. This handbook is a practical, easy-to-follow reference that offers step-by-step procedures for conducting simulation studies that help decision-makers find the optimal courses of action. Unlike most other books on the subject, this presentation is independent of any particular simulation software, allowing readers to use any commercial package or general purpose programming language.
