Hybrid Modeling And Simulation - Conceptualizations, Methods And Applications

~~211,34€~~ 190,21€ 10% OFF

 The unique book advances understanding of modelling complex systems using hybrid approaches that combine discrete-event, agent-based, and system dynamic simulations with research approaches and artefacts from other scientific disciplines.As systems become increasingly large and complex, it is a challenge to capture the intricacies of the underlying system and offer novel forms of analysis using only models that employ a single simulation technique. The book underscores the importance of both hybrid simulation (employing techniques primarily developed in the field of modelling and simulation) and hybrid modelling (incorporating simulation with methods from wider disciplines such as applied computing, data science, engineering, and soft/qualitative operations research). Furthermore, the text aims to inspire further research and practice, fostering the growth of cross-disciplinary hybrid models.Topics and features:<ul><li>Provides a comprehensive overview of hybrid modelling and simulation, including methodological extensions and novel applications</li><li>Features case studies and examples demonstrating the synergy realized by applying hybrid methods</li><li>Calls for innovation and growth of the discipline by incorporating diverse scientific perspectives</li><li>Encourages adoption of interdisciplinary methods to engender improved insights from simulation studies</li><li>Promotes interdisciplinary collaboration, pushing modelling and simulation into new research and application areas</li></ul>This comprehensive volume will appeal to researchers, academics, students, and practitioners who seek to advance their modelling and simulation work. The book also will serve as a reference, informing research communities of the potential of hybrid models that combine simulation with disciplinary research artefacts, methods, and approaches.

Body Of Knowledge For Modeling And Simulation - A Handbook By The Society For Modeling And Simulation International

118,59€ + 10% CARD

 Commissioned by the Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS), this needed, useful new ‘Body of Knowledge’ (BoK) collects and organizes the common understanding of a wide collection of professionals and professional associations.Modeling and simulation (M&S) is a ubiquitous discipline that lays the computational foundation for real and virtual experimentation, clearly stating boundaries—and interactions—of systems, data, and representations. The field is well known, too, for its training support via simulations and simulators. Indeed, with computers increasingly influencing the activities of today’s world, M&S is the third pillar of scientific understanding, taking its place along with theory building and empirical observation.This valuable new handbook provides intellectual support for all disciplines in analysis, design and optimization. It contributes increasingly to the growing number of computational disciplines, addressing the broad variety of contributing as well as supported disciplines and application domains. Further, each of its sections provide numerous references for further information. Highly comprehensive, the BoK represents many viewpoints and facets, captured under such topics as:<ul><li>Mathematical and Systems Theory Foundations</li><li>Simulation Formalisms and Paradigms</li><li>Synergies with Systems Engineering and Artificial Intelligence</li><li>Multidisciplinary Challenges</li><li>Ethics and Philosophy</li><li>Historical Perspectives</li></ul><div>Examining theoretical as well as practical challenges, this unique volume addresses the many facets of M&S for scholars, students, and practitioners. As such, it affords readers from all science, engineering, and arts disciplines a comprehensive and concise representation of concepts, terms, and activities needed to explain the M&S discipline.Tuncer Ören is Professor Emeritus at the University of Ottawa. Bernard Zeigler is Professor Emeritus at the University of Arizona. Andreas Tolk is Chief Scientist at The MITRE Corporation. All three editors are long-time members and Fellows of the Society for Modeling and Simulation International. Under the leadership of three SCS Fellows, Dr. Ören, University of Ottawa, Dr. Zeigler, The University of Arizona, and Dr. Tolk, The MITRE Corporation, more than 50 international scholars from 15 countries provided insights and experience to compile this initial M&S Body of Knowledge.</div>

 This hands-on textbook/reference presents an introduction to the fundamental aspects of modelling and simulation, both for those wishing to learn about this methodology and also for those who have a need to apply it in their work. The text is supported by illustrative examples, drawn from projects formulated within the domains of discrete-event dynamic systems (DEDS) and continuous-time dynamic systems (CTDS).This updated new edition has been enhanced with new illustrative case studies, and additional examples demonstrating some new features and the effectiveness of the ABCmod conceptual modelling framework. Changes that facilitate the development of simulation models with ABSmod/J are illustrated. New material includes a presentation of the experimentation strategy called "design of experiments" and three new chapters that explore the optimization-simulation interface. Topics and features: presents a goal-based and project-oriented perspective of modelling and simulation; describes the ABCmod framework, an activity-based conceptual modelling framework for DEDS; examines the simulation-optimization interface in both the CTDS and DEDS domains; provides numerous illustrative examples, case studies and useful algorithms, as well as exercises and projects at the end of most chapters; includes appendices on probability and statistics, the GPSS programming environment, and relevant MATLAB features; provides supplementary software and teaching support material at an associated website, including lecture slides and a methodology for organizing student projects.Serving as an essential guide to the foundations of modelling and simulation, this practical primer is ideal for senior undergraduate and junior graduate-level students. Also suitable for self-study, the book will be of great benefit to professionals seeking insight into the vast potential of this rapidly evolving problem-solving paradigm.
