Simulation with Visual SLAM and AweSim


Book Description

This book presents a process for problem resolution, policy crafting, and decision making based on the use of modeling and simulation. Detailed descriptions of the methods by which Visual SLAM and AweSim, version 3, support this process are presented. The text is organized into four parts: Introduction to Simulation, Visual SLAM Network Modeling and AweSim, Simulation Analysis, and Visual SLAM Discrete, Continuous and Combined Modeling.




Artificial War


Book Description

Military conflicts, particularly land combat, possess thecharacteristics of complex adaptive systems: combat forces arecomposed of a large number of nonlinearly interacting parts and areorganized in a dynamic command-and-control network; local action, which often appears disordered, self-organizes into long-range order;military conflicts, by their nature, proceed far from equilibrium;military forces adapt to a changing combat environment; and there isno master voice that dictates the actions of every soldier (i




Handbook of Dynamic System Modeling


Book Description

The topic of dynamic models tends to be splintered across various disciplines, making it difficult to uniformly study the subject. Moreover, the models have a variety of representations, from traditional mathematical notations to diagrammatic and immersive depictions. Collecting all of these expressions of dynamic models, the Handbook of Dynamic Sy




An Introduction to Simulation Using GPSS/H


Book Description

Employs the same painstaking thoroughness and accuracy in introducing the GPSS language that made the 1974 book so popular. Includes an educational version, GPSS/H from Wolverine Software, for personal computers that is as powerful, except in file size, as the package that costs commercial users over –5,000. Available in two versions: one with 5 1/4' disks, and one with 3 1/2' disks.




Simulation Modeling and SIMNET


Book Description

A complete introduction to the field of discrete simulation; examining both the generic background material necessary to perform any simulation project and complete documentation for the new network-based simulation language SIMNET.







An Introduction to the Regenerative Method for Simulation Analysis


Book Description

The purpose of this report is to provide an introduction to the regenerative method for simulation analysis. The simulations are simulations of stochastic systems, i.e., systems with random elements. The regenerative approach leads to a statistical methodology for analyzing the output of those simulations which have the property of 'starting afresh probabilistically' from time to time. The class of such simulations is very large and very important, including simulations of a broad variety of queues and queueing networks, inventory systems, inspection, maintenance, and repair operations, and numerous other situations.




Simulation Using GPSS


Book Description

This book's objective is to help the reader to acquire mastery of GPSS (General Purpose Simulation System). GPSS is a simulation programming language used to build computer models for discrete event simulations. (Author).




Introduction to Simulation Using Siman


Book Description

The fundamental concepts of simulation modelling are presented along with methodologies used in applying simulation to business and engineering problems. Written by the creators of SIMAN, a commercial simulation software package, this book presents practical examples in the SIMAN language.
