Simulation modeling

Simulation is powerful technique for scientific research and engineering analysis. More precisely, this is simulation modeling.

It becomes essential in two main scenarios.

• when no exact formula exists to describe the system under study.
• when a formula exists, but its computational complexity makes it impossible to obtain results within a reasonable time.

One of the most widely used approaches is discrete-event simulation.

It is applied across many fields, including telecommunication and transport systems, computer networks, road traffic, railway stations, warehouses, airports, and aerospace objects.

In other words, discrete-event simulation can be applied for many engineering purposes.

Discrete-event simulation software provides an efficient way to obtain the characteristics of the system under study.

Simulation modeling is also an effective technique for scientific research.

OpenSIMPLY is free and open-source simulation software for both scientific software and educational software.
