Defination of simulation
simulation is a quantitaive technique
develop for studying alternative
course of action by building a model
of that system and then conducting
a series of repeated trial and error
experiments to predict the
behaviour of the system over a
period of time.
Steps in methodolgy
1.DEFINE THE PROBLEM

2.ANALYSE COSTS AND BENEFITS

3.CONSTRUCT ASIMULTION MODEL

4.CODE THE MODEL

5.VALIDATE THE MODEL

6.PLAN OR DESIGN THE EXPERIMENT

7.ANALYSE THE RESULTS & DRAW CONCLUSIONS

8.DOCUMENT & IMPLEMENT THE FINDINGS

 STEPS
1.DEFINE THE PROBLEM
2.ANALYSE COSTS AND BENEFITS
3.CONSTRUCT ASIMULTION MODEL
4.CODE THE MODEL
5. VALIDATE THE MODEL unless the model
gives results that are adequate
approximations of what would occur in the
real system, simulation can lead to the
wrong answers. Validation is achieving a
sufficient level of confidence that the
model does provide an adequate
representation of reality.

6.Plan or design the experiment the objective

of an investigation is usually to learn
something about the performance of the
real system which is conducted with the
simulation model by listing specific values of
variables to be tested at each trial.
7.Analyse the results & draw
conclusions if the simulation process
is complete then select the best
course of action otherwise make
desired changes in model decision
variables, parameters or design &
return to step 3.

8.Document & implement the findings

the value of a simulation model does
not end after the first application.
True validation of a model occurs
over time if actual results are like
those that the simulation model
predicted.
