Kelton, Law, Simulation modeling and analysis, McGraw Hill.
Kelton, Law, Sadowsky, Simulation with Arena, McGraw Hill

Learn how to model and simulate discrete event systems, by properly following the stesp of data acquisition, data processing, parameters estimation, model building, verification, validation and use in an statistically correct experimental frame.

"Induatrial Plants Management" course

Lectures immediatly followed by training in IT laboratory or by means of BYOD

The laboratory is mandatory linked to "Management of Industrial Plants" course

Elaboration of a project work, about which the oral examination of "Industrial Plants Management" will be held

1) The discrete events stochastic simulation
1.a) taxonomies and definitions
1.b) The process modeling
1.c) The proper use of simulation as an experimental tool
1 d) The preparation of input data, and the analysis of results
1.e) The statistical methods for the analysis and comparison of results
1.f) The design of experiments
1.g) Learning a simulation language like Arena or Simio (to be decided)
2) Elaboration of a project work aimed to improve the performance of a production system by means of simulation.
