Simulation

Simulation, 6th Edition introduces practical approaches to constructing computerized simulation studies for analyzing and interpreting real phenomena. The textbook explains how computers generate random numbers and how those values simulate the behavior of stochastic models over time.

Key areas of discussion include generating discrete and continuous random variables, the discrete event simulation approach, and statistical techniques for analyzing data and validating models.

Intended for students in fields such as engineering, computer science, and statistics, the book supports learning with practice exercises and applied demonstrations in the free software package R.
