Discrete Event Simulation
online
University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten
Agenda of the course:
- Application of simulation in general and specifically in the production area;
- Process of a simulation study;
- Introduction to queuing theory;
- Introduction to AnyLogic c;
- Single machine model: Experiment, iteration, replication, confidence interval, warm-up phase;
- Modeling of logistical key figures (service level, inventory, lead time) in simulation models;
- Deterministic vs. stochastic production and logistic systems
"The students
- can analyze and evaluate simple logistical problems and questions in a stochastic environment (e.g. one or two machine models) using simulation software (e.g. AnyLogic software) (L3-L4).
- can create a simple simulation model based on company data (L6) and make statistically sound statements about the expected company key figures (lead time, inventory, delays and delivery reliability) (L4).
- can discuss the results critically and make decisions based on these or make recommendations to the company's management (L4-L5)."
