Based on presentation to IEEE's 2010 Winter Simulation Conference, Baltimore, Dec. 5-8, 2010. A discrete-event simulation technique, combined with optimization tools, permits easy management of ...

For large international companies with their own simulation team, it is often hard to make a decision related to selection of new discrete-event simulation software. This paper presents a ...

Simulation modelling has emerged as a vital tool for understanding and managing the inherent complexity of numerous systems, from healthcare and manufacturing to logistics and business operations. By ...

We present a general framework for applying simulation to optimize the behavior of discrete event systems. Our approach involves modeling the discrete event system under study as a general state space ...
