Description for Introduction to Discrete Event Simulation and Agent-based Modeling
Hardcover. This book shows how simulation can facilitate improvements on the job and in communities. The reader will learn to plan a project and communicate using a charter, how to establish simultaneous intervals on key responses and apply selection and ranking, and more. Num Pages: 227 pages, 33 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: KJMV5; KJT; UGK; UYAM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 243 x 165 x 20. Weight in Grams: 470.
Discrete event simulation and agent-based modeling are increasingly recognized as critical for diagnosing and solving process issues in complex systems. Introduction to Discrete Event Simulation and Agent-based Modeling covers the techniques needed for success in all phases of simulation projects. These include: • Definition – The reader will learn how to plan a project and communicate using a charter. • Input analysis – The reader will discover how to determine defensible sample sizes for all needed data collections. They will also learn how to fit distributions to that data. • Simulation – The reader will understand how ... Read more

Reviews for Introduction to Discrete Event Simulation and Agent-based Modeling
From the reviews: “The unique feature of Introduction to Discrete Event Simulation and Agent-based Modeling: Voting Systems, Health Care, Military, and Manufacturing is its use of a consistent case study (i.e., voting system) in all chapters, an approach that should help students learn how to conduct a full simulation modelling project. … I have recommended it to students of ...
