Simulation Software AnyLogic -Teamwork -Presentation of results

Course content

This course gives an overview about simulation modelling with focus on discrete-event modelling, system dynamics and agent-based modelling. These three modelling techniques are linked to operations management, logistics and supply chain network design to visualize real world processes to conduct forecasts and optimization. The understanding of simulation modelling is supported by basic concepts, including queuing theory, data collection and data analysis, probability distribution functions and Monte Carlo simulation. Proceedings of simulation modelling and output analysis are presented to enable students to create their own models and to perform experiments. Models are created with the simulation software AnyLogic PLE. 


Subjects:
 Probability distribution functions
 System dynamics
 Agend-based modelling
 Supply chain network design
 Data collection and data analysis
 Model output analysis Optimization
