SIME 5060 - Discrete Simulation

Institution:

University of Utah

Subject:

Description:

This course introduces discrete event simulation (through Arena) and how it is applied to dynamic systems. Discrete event simulation concepts such as entities, resources, and event chains are introduced. Systems will be simulated considering time (such as work schedules, machine/human performance), space (such as process layout) and resource (such as manpower, equipment) characteristics of process. In doing that, the course covers a variety of Arena features and building blocks. The course will also introduce time studies, and distribution fitting. Prerequisites: 'C' or better in (ME EN 2550 OR MATH 3070 OR CH EN 2550 OR CS 3130 OR ECE 3530) AND (Full Major status in The College of Engineering OR The College of Mines and Earth Sciences)
