Simulation modeling workshop

This paper reviews the fundamentals of computer simulation modeling. Simulation is viewed here as a technique for the experimental manipulation of a model of a real-world system, drawing heavily upon computer science, mathematics, probability and statistics. Simulation involves modeling the entities in a physical system and the activities in which those entities engage. It affords the opportunity to construct ideally configured systems and select optimum system operating conditions on the basis of results obtained by simulating such configurations and conditions on a digital computer. Models of some simple material handling systems are used to illustrate the simulation concepts presented here.
