Event Simulation SSG 841 Exam




Example


Modeling a line, such as people coming to a bank to be served by a teller, is a frequent exercise in learning how to design discrete-event simulations. The system entities in this case are Customers and Tellers. Customer-Arrival and Customer-Departure are system events. (The Teller-Begins-Service event can be included in the logic of the arrival and departure events.) These events affect the system states Number-of-Customers-in-Queue (an integer from 0 to n) and Teller-Status (busy or idle). Customer-Interarrival-Time and Teller-Service-Time are the random variables that must be characterized to stochastically represent this system. Another example of a discrete event simulation is an agent-based framework for performance modeling of an optimistic parallel discrete event simulator.  Wikipedia
