Overview of Simulation Modeling

Simulation modeling allows system developers and analysts to predict the performance of existing or proposed systems under different configurations or operating policies. This process, carried out before the existing system is actually changed or the new system is built, eliminates the risk of unforeseen bottlenecks, underutilization or overutilization of resources, and failure to meet specified system requirements.

Unfortunately, many people still believe that simulation is largely an exercise in computer "programming" when, in fact, programming represents only 25 to 50 percent of a sound simulation study. Our courses on simulation modeling and analysis are designed to provide you with the complete set of skills actually needed for simulation project success – training on how to use a simulation-software product is clearly not sufficient.  In fact, 5 of the top 10 simulation-software vendors have sent people to Dr. Law's seminars.  You will learn the latest and most-important simulation techniques in a small fraction of the time that you could by reading on your own or by attending simulation conferences. Each topic builds on previous ones and is presented in an intuitive and understandable manner.
