Simulation - spring 2014
This page links to the materials of the spring 2014 instance of the Simulation course.
For your convenience the materials of the previous instances can be found here.
Contents
- Simulation and modelling
- Different paradigms for discrete event simulation
- Event oriented simulation
- Object oriented simulation
- Random numbers
- Monte Carlo and basic statistical analysis
- Transients and steady states
- Variance reduction
- Regression and metamodelling
The course will include exercises that require operating with some Java-based simulation packages/libraries
(like JavaSim or Desmo-J, see below). The exercises can be made in small groups (2-3 persons). More details by e-mail circulation.
