Simulation modelling concepts, tools and practical business applications

"While simulation has a vast area of application, this textbook focuses on the use of simulation to analyse business processes. It provides an up-to-date coverage of all stages of the Discrete Event Simulation (DES) process, covering important areas such as conceptual modelling, modelling input...
