Simulation techniques play a crucial role in the field of Industrial Engineering, offering a powerful means to model, analyze, and optimize complex systems. This paper provides an overview of the state of simulation techniques in Industrial Engineering, with a focus on a comparative review of their application in the USA and Africa. In the United States, simulation has become an integral part of industrial processes, aiding in the design and improvement of manufacturing systems, supply chains, and logistics. Advanced simulation tools enable engineers to simulate real-world scenarios, evaluate performance, and identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies. The USA's emphasis on technology and innovation has resulted in the widespread adoption of simulation techniques, contributing to increased efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and overall competitiveness in industrial sectors. On the other hand, the African perspective reveals a diverse landscape with unique challenges and opportunities. While certain regions in Africa are rapidly advancing in industrialization, others face infrastructure limitations and economic constraints. The use of simulation techniques in African industrial engineering is gaining traction, albeit at a different pace. Localized applications focus on optimizing resource utilization, enhancing production processes, and addressing specific challenges related to the African context. The review highlights the potential for knowledge transfer and collaboration between the USA and Africa in the realm of simulation techniques. Bridging the gap through information exchange, training programs, and technology transfer can contribute to the development of sustainable and resilient industrial practices in Africa. Challenges such as data availability, infrastructure limitations, and skill development are addressed, offering insights into how these obstacles can be overcome to facilitate the effective implementation of simulation techniques in the African industrial landscape. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of simulation techniques in Industrial Engineering, examining the disparities and commonalities between the USA and Africa. By understanding the current state and challenges faced by both perspectives, this review sets the stage for collaborative efforts that can propel the industrial engineering field forward on a global scale.
