DESCRIPTION:
All aspects of simulation are covered, as well as the latest simulation techniques. This book is the first ever to bring together the top 30 international experts on simulation from both industry and academia. Most importantly, the book walks the reader through the various industries that use simulation and explains what is used, how it is used, and why. From the Publisher Simulation modeling is one of the most powerful techniques available for studying large and complex systems.
Better for grad or high-level, good for novice as well Many discrete-event simulation books make this book unique. Banks didn't focus particularily on some packages, but the foundation of discrete-event simulation. I think this book intended to people who has some simulation background. It's also a good reference for researchers or grad students as well as practitioners since many literature and simulation vendors a. A Customer said Good publication for the current practicing engineer.. If you have a good background in calculus based statistics, this is a good reference book. The author has pulled together great historical statistical testing and design info and integrates it with recent research. A good deal of the work comes out of research recently presented at the Winter Simulation Conference series. Each chapter has ample bibliographic inf. "Is a excelent book" according to Eduardo El Ruiz Flores. The book is excelent. The tips and event simulations projects are useful (if you are in simulation and research operation market). I have four stars for this book because all the models are event orientedDon't buy if you need study dynamic models in diferential equations.
The only complete guide to all aspects and uses of simulation-from the international leaders in the field There has never been a single definitive source of key information on all facets of discrete-event simulation and its applications to major industries. The Handbook of Simulation brings together the contributions of leading academics, practitioners, and software developers to offer authoritative coverage of the principles, techniques, and uses of discrete-event simulation. Comprehensive in scope and thorough in approach, the Handbook is the one reference on discrete-event simulation that every industrial engineer, management scientist, computer scientist, operations manager, or operations researcher involved in problem-solving should own, with an in-depth examination of: * Simulation methodology, from experimental design to data analysis and more * Recent advances, such as object-oriented simulation, on-line simulation, and parallel and distributed simulation * Applications across a full range of manuf
