Discrete Event System Simulation (Prentice-Hall international series in industrial & systems engineering) by Jerry and Carson, John S., II Banks

by John S. II Carson

This book provides a basic treatment of discrete-event simulation, including the proper collection and analysis of data, the use of analytic techniques, verification and validation of models, and designing simulation experiments. Contains up-to-date treatment of simulation of manufacturing and material handling systems. Includes numerous solved examples. Offers an integrated website. Explains how to interpret simulation software output. For those interested in learning more about discrete-event simulation.

I've been using this as reference for a CS class on simulation, and it has been a __life_saver__. Some authors just assault you with equations, then wave their hands in the air as an explanation. But here, everything is in plain English. And while the material's not easy, it can be grasped after some close reading. Very trite, but it's made the subject fun. PLUS: Solutions for the exercises are available online with some clever Googling. Check it.

I read this book for self-study to get an idea as to how discrete event simulation worked. This book was pretty good for that. The application chapters at the end of the text weren't terribly useful as it seems like they exist to motivate a lab section or assignments in a university course. Some of the statistics-oriented sections did full calculation demos in the text. While a good idea in principle, these also dragged on quite a bit. Still it was a good, complete text for getting a handle on these concepts.

This is very special subject and this textbook is good reference book if you take this course

[Andrew Obrigewitsch · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a fairly good book on the subject of experimental modeling and simulation. It does help go have a background in stats and there is some calculus in the book, not to mention a strong understanding of programming.
