"This book offers a concise introduction to the art of building simulation software. It clearly demonstrates the five skills necessary for building simulations of complicated systems: abstractions for simulation dynamic systems; basic simulation algorithms for continuous and discrete event simulations; combining continuous and discrete event simulations into a coherent whole; strategies for testing a simulation; and theoretical foundations of the modeling constructs and simulation algorithms. This is indispensable reading for software programmers, developers, and engineers, and students in related courses"--Provided by publisher.
"This book will be used as an introduction to the design and implementation of simulation software, as a reference for fundamental abstractions that are useful when building object-oriented simulation programs, and as a collection of specific algorithms for simulating dynamic systems"--Provided by publisher.
A unique guide to the design and implementation of simulation software This book offers a concise introduction to the art of building simulation software, collecting the most important concepts and algorithms in one place. Written for both individuals new to the field of modeling and simulation as well as experienced practitioners, this guide explains the design and implementation of simulation software used in the engineering of large systems while presenting the relevant mathematical elements, concept discussions, and code development. The book approaches the topic from the perspe.
