Abstract

We give an overview of simulation modeling and analysis from the perspective of prospective users wanting to use simulation as a decision aid. Important considerations in building simulation models and analyzing their outputs are discussed. A brief overview of available software is given. At the end of this tutorial, you should have a general understanding of simulation and an understanding of its applicability to your situation.
