Types of Simulation
If the relationships that compose the model are simple enough, it may be
possible to use mathematical methods (such as algebra, calculus, or
probability theory) to obtain exact information on questions of interest; this is
called an analytic solution. However, most real-world systems are too
complex to allow realistic models to be evaluated analytically, and these
models must be studied by means of simulation. In a simulation we use a
computer to evaluate a model numerically, and data are gathered in order to
estimate the desired true characteristics of the model.

Application areas for simulation are numerous and diverse. Below is a list of
some particular kinds of problems for which simulation has been found to be a
useful and powerful tool:

who reported that simulation ranked second in "familiarity" (just behind linear
programming), but first in terms of utility and interest, among some twelve
methodologies. Forgionne (1983) and Harpell, Lane, and Mansour (1989) also
reported that simulation ranked second in utilization (again behind "statistical
analysis" only) among eight tools in a survey of large corporations. All of
these surveys are by now several years old , and we can assume that
simulation's value and usage have since increased, due to improvements in
computing power and in simulation software, as discussed below.

At some point in the lives of most systems, there is a need to study them to try
to gain some insight into the relationships among various components, or to
predict performance under some new conditions being considered. Figure 1
maps out different ways in which a system might be studied.

While there may be an element of truth to pejorative old saws such as "method
of last resort" sometimes used to describe simulation, the fact is that we are
very quickly led to simulation in many situations, due to the sheer complexity
of the systems of interest and of the models necessary to represent them in a
valid way.
