It introduces object-oriented programming for simulation, covers both the probabilistic and statistical basis for simulation in a rigorous but accessible manner (providing all necessary background material), and provides a modern treatment of experiment design and analysis that goes beyond classical statistics. The book emphasizes essential foundations throughout, rather than providing a compendium of algorithms and theorems, and prepares the reader to use simulation in research as well as practice. The book is a rigorous but concise treatment, emphasizing lasting principles, but also providing specific training in modeling, programming and analysis. In addition to teaching readers how to do simulation, it also prepares them to use simulation in their research; no other book does this. 410 0$aInternational Series in Operations Research & Management Science,$x2214-7934 606 $aOperations research 606 $aManagement science 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aOperations Research and Decision Theory 606 $aOperations Research, Management Science 606 $aComputer Modelling 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aManagement science. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 14$aOperations Research and Decision Theory. 615 24$aOperations Research, Management Science. 615 24$aComputer Modelling. 676 $a519.2 700 $aNelson$b Barry$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0511773 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438089803321 996 $aFoundations and Methods of Stochastic Simulation$92522998 997 $aUNINA
