The authors offer a concise look at the key concepts and techniques of modeling and simulation and then discuss how and why the presented domains have become leading applications. The book begins with an introduction of why modeling and simulation is a reliable analysis assessment tool for complex systems problems and then explains why the selected domains are drawn upon to proffer solutions for these problems"--Provided by publisher.Wiley handbooks in operations research and management science.System analysisMathematical modelsHandbooks, manuals, etcComputer simulationSystem analysisMathematical modelsComputer simulation.003MAT000000bisacshSokolowski John A.1953-862787Sokolowski John A.1953-862787Banks Catherine M.1960-862788MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910141294803321Handbook of real-world applications in modeling and simulation2145508UNINA
