The Bad News• Don’t get exact answers, only approximations,estimates– Also true of many other modern methods– Can bound errors by machine roundoff• Get random output (RIRO) from stochasticsimulations– Statistical design, analysis of simulation experiments– Exploit: noise control, replicability, sequential sampling,variance-reduction techniques– Catch: “standard” statistical methods seldom workSimulation with Arena — Chapter 1 — What is Simulation? 1 - 12
Different Kinds of Simulation• Static vs. Dynamic– Does time have a role in the model?• Continuous-change vs. Discrete-change– Can the “state” change continuously or only at discretepoints in time?• Deterministic vs. Stochastic– Is everything for sure or is there uncertainty?• Most operational models:– Dynamic, Discrete-change, StochasticSimulation with Arena — Chapter 1 — What is Simulation? 1 - 13
