Textbook in PDF format The use of discrete-event simulation in various fields, such as in industry, logistics and public health, has really taken off over the last few decades. The implementation of discrete-event simulation does however require an understanding, and perhaps even a mastery, of precise theoretical and methodological principles. Discrete-Event Simulation presents the key concepts involved in any discrete-event simulation project, covering the most frequently used techniques for analysing data and results, the methodological and practical aspects of implementing discrete-event simulation, along with an introduction to the use of the “Arena” discrete-event simulation tool. This book combines the elements presented with applied examples, as well as numerous examples of simulation projects in various fields. Preface. Simulation. Simulation Project. Data Processing. Results Analysis. Presentation of Arena Software. Simulation Modeling. Simulation within the Manufacturing Sector. Simulation within the Health Sector: Study of a Covid-19 Mass Vaccination Center. Simulation in Supply Chains: Optimizing CO 2 Emissions Through Pooling Strategies. Appendix 1. Table of χ2 Appendix 2. Table of F for α = 0.05. Appendix 3. Duncan Multiplier Table for α = 0.05.
