Abstract:Discrete-Event Simulation is a powerful, but underexploited alternative for many kinds of physical experimentation. It permits what is physically impossible or unaffordable, to conduct and run related experiments in parallel, against each other. Comparative and Concurrent Simulation (CCS) is a parallel experimentation method that adds a comparative dimension to discrete-event simulation. As a methodology or style, CCS resembles a manypronged rake; its effectiveness is proportional to the number of prongs--the … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
