Modern Statistical Systems and GPSS Simulation introduces the theory and implementation of discrete-event simulation. This text establishes a theoretical basis for simulation methodology, provides details of an important simulation language (GPSS General Purpose Simulation System), and integrates these two elements in a systems simulation case study. Valuable additions to the second edition include coverage of random number generators with astronomic period, new entropy-based tests of uniformity, gamma variate generation, results on the GLD and variance reduction techniques.

This book addresses a major problem in statistics that occurs througho ut the physical and social sciences concerning the fitting of a statis tical distribution to a set of data. Because of this situation many in vestigators have proposed various schemes to address this problem. How ever, this creates an even knottier problem due to the fact that in a specific application there may be 39 or more applicable distributions. In this new book the authors discuss the use of the Generalized Lambd a Distribution as well as the extended GLD which is an even more effec tive way of using the GLD to fit...
