Modeling and Simulation is the most widely used operations research / systems engineering technique for designing new systems and optimizing the performance of existing systems. In one way or another, just about every engineering or scientific field uses simulation as an exploration, modeling, or analysis technique. The course is designed to provide students with basic knowledge of modeling and simulation approaches and to provide them with first experience of using a simulation package. The course will focus on modeling and simulation of real-world discrete event systems. Examples of discrete events are customer arrivals at a queue of a service desk, machine failures in manufacturing systems, telephone calls in a call center, etc. Moreover, continuous and hybrid models will be also discussed. Topics include Discrete-Event Simulation, Input Modeling, Output Analysis, Random Number Generation, Verification and Validation, Stochastic Petri Nets and Markov Chains.
