Fundamentals about discrete simulation, description of the simulation process beginning by analysing the problem, creation of a model, introduction and comparison of used simulation tools, practical applications in the process simulation of materials handling equipment and logistic systems, e.g. in airports, seaports, distribution centers, hospitals, production facilities.
Presentation with slides and discussion of application examples. Discussion about different modeling concepts, such as transport, manufacturing, supply chains etc., short introduction to the software program SIMIO, demonstration and discussion of simple simulation models.
