Class Objectives
/Class Outline
The neccesity to utilize simulation increases more and more as the objective system becomes larger and larger. This lecture explains various systems, their models, and techniques of simulation to utilize the models for analyzing the systems. The techniques for stochastic simulation, continuous simulation and discrete event simulation are explained.
