During difficult economic times, companies have few positive cost reducing options that simultaneously improve operational performance. This paper addresses how Deloitte Consulting partnered with Simio LLC to model multiple process improvement opportunities for a HVAC manufacturer in order to reduce the facility’s operating costs. Through the use of simulation, the team was able to determine the impact of reducing the cost burden for the HVAC company by minimizing WIP inventory, eliminating over-time labor and increasing throughput. Four separate improvement opportunities were modeled independently and conjointly to provide insight into the size of the savings opportunities as well as to enable the prioritization of those efforts.

Pau Fonseca i Casas, Josep Casanovas. JGPSS, an open source GPSS framework to teach simulation // Proceedings of the 2009 Winter Simulation Conference. P.256–267.
GPSS has been used for years to teach simulation. Different tools following the GPSS syntax exist. Usually these tools can be used to construct simulation models helping in the teaching of simulation. However no available framework is capable to simplify the development of a complete simulation tool following the GPSS syntax. This paper presents JGPSS, a framework based in Java language that can be used by students to build a complete simulation tool following the GPSS syntax. JGPSS has two versions, one capable to perform simulations and obtain statistical information, and other designed as a framework for students of computer sciences. This last framework, described in this paper, lacks in the implementation of the main simulation engine algorithms or the related structures. This framework allows the computer science student to reach a deeper understanding of how to construct a complete process interaction simulation engine, the paradigm that GPSS follows.

In this paper, a multi-agent model is proposed for considering the human resources factor in decision making in relation to the six sigma project. The proposed multi-agent system is expected to increase the acccuracy of project prioritization and to stabilize the human resources service level. A simulation of the proposed multiagent model is conducted. The results show that a multi-agent model which takes into consideration human resources when making decisions about project selection and project team formation is important in enabling efficient and effective project management. The multi-agent modeling approach provides an alternative approach for improving communication and the autonomy of six sigma projects in business organizations.

A trend in up-to-date developments in supply chain management (SCM) is to make supply chains more agile, flexible, and responsive. In supply chains, different structures (functional, organizational, informational, financial etc.) are (re)formed. These structures interrelate with each other and change in dynamics. The paper introduces a new conceptual framework for multi-structural planning and operations of adaptive supply chains with structure dynamics considerations. We elaborate a vision of adaptive supply chain management (A-SCM), a new dynamic model and tools for the planning and control of adaptive supply chains. SCM is addressed from perspectives of execution dynamics under uncertainty.

Through 50 years of innovation, discrete–event simulation environments have offered similar approaches to modeling the re-sources that participate in simulations. These approaches involve «clients» and «servers» of varying activity levels that wait in queues of varying sophistication. While powerful enough for many applications, these models limit the complexity of the entities that may be represented. Analysis of more than thirty simulation environments provides the substrate for defining «levels» of modeling features from primitive foundations to advanced embellishment. This analysis not only supports comparison of existing resource models, but also informs the development of new approaches.

In this tutorial we present techniques for building valid and credible simulation models. Ideas to be discussed include the importance of a definitive problem formulation, discussions with subject-matter experts, interacting with the decision-maker on a regular basis, development of a written assumptions document, structured walk-through of the assumptions document, use of sensitivity analysis to determine important model factors, and comparison of model and system output data for an existing system (if any). Each idea will be illustrated by one or more real-world examples. We will also discuss the difficulty in using formal statistical techniques (e.g., confidence intervals) to validate simulation models.

Connected Chemistry (named CC1 to denote Connected Chemistry Chapter 1) is a computer-based environment for learning the topics of gas laws and kinetic molecular theory in chemistry. It views chemistry from an «emergent» perspective, how macroscopic phenomena result from the interaction of many submicroscopic particles. Connected Chemistry employs agent-based models built in NetLogo, embedded in scripts that structure and log the students’ activities.

ISBN 978-9984-818-21-4. P.384-393.
In this paper a microscopic discrete event urban traffic model validation using simulation is presented. In a previous study a hierarchical microscopic urban traffic system (UTS) model was developed. That model integrates the event oriented and agent-based approach. The UTS is described using the multi-level Petri net based formalism, named n-LNS. Usually simulators are designed using time step approach and are validated using real data and is verified that the flow/density relationship (fundamental diagram) are conserved and then state the simulator generates a valid behavior. However, the model used in this paper uses the event oriented approach, doing more complex the process to obtain these validation graphs and their corresponding analysis. In order to validate it, was developed a library known as CiudadelaSim.

The paper discusses how the simulation of the two and three block assembly process exercise is helpful in locating the bottle-necks over longer time span of the production process and at what rate the blocks can be accepted at the erection stage of shipbuilding. In order to achieve faster production it is necessary to reduce the occurrence as well as time span of bottlenecks. Simulation of multiple block assembly process also gives an idea whether the present assembly area is adequate to meet the production schedule.

We present a preliminary version of the MAICS (Multi-Agent Introduction to Computer Science) framework, which is a new approach for revitalizing introductory undergraduate or high school computer science curricula through the deep integration of agent-based modeling and multi-agent systems perspectives. We have developed a suite of educational agent-based models highlighting several key ideas of computer science.

In this paper, I briefly introduce Coombs unfolding technique, and model the technique using simple agent-based models (ABMs) developed in the NetLogo modeling environment. I then attempt to address some of the difficulties one may encounter when applying Coombs unfolding to a population by using these ABMs as a starting point. Finally, I discuss the affordances and disadvantages of using computational modeling as a starting point for thinking about applied mathematical problems.

This paper deals with the developed cargo traffic macroscopic simulation model. The goal of model development is to analyse and study Riga-Mink transport corridor. The simulation model was developed using specialised simulation software called PTV VISION VISUM. VISUM uses the transport model that defines requirement for input data. The developed model consists of transport network model and demand model. The demand model is presented by two origin destination matrices, which have been calibrated using TFlowFuzzy algorithm. Further calibrated model has been used to estimate two development scenarios using different output data of VISUM.
