Systems Simulation

Catalog description

Simulation of dynamic stochastic systems using models involving numerical and logical processes. Modeling concepts, description in terms of entities, attributes, and activities, time flow mechanisms, queues, event-oriented vs. particle-oriented models. Generation of stochastic variates, collection and evaluation of statistics. Simulation languages. Computer projects using a general purpose language (e.g. Fortran or Matlab) and at least one simulation language (e.g. GPSS) will be assigned.
