Since the publication of the first edition in 1982, the goal of "Simulation Modeling and Analysis" has always been to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art, and technically correct treatment of all important aspects of a simulation study. The book strives to make this material understandable by the use of intuition and numerous figures, ...
"Computers and Thought" contains the work of the scientists who not only defined the field of Artificial Intelligence, but who are responsible for having developed it into what it is today. Originally published in 1963, this collection includes 20 classic papers by such pioneers as A.M. Turing and Marvin Minsky who were behind the pivotal advances ...
Computer simulation is an essential tool in studying the chemistry and physics of liquids. Simulations allow us to develop models and to test them against experimental data. They can be used to evaluate approximate theories of liquids, and to provide detailed information on the structure and dynamics of model liquids at the molecular level. This ...
This new edition presents a fully updated and comprehensive account of the major topics that have emerged in Monte Carlo simulation since the publication of the classic First Edition over twenty-five years ago. While maintaining its accessible and intuitive approach, this revised edition features a wealth of up-to-date information that facilitates ...
"Simulation Modeling and Analysis with Arena" is a highly readable textbook which treats the essentials of the Monte Carlo discrete-event simulation methodology, and does so in the context of a popular Arena simulation environment. It treats simulation modeling as an in-vitro laboratory that facilitates the understanding of complex systems and ...
This work explains what Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) - the Department of Defence's new high-tech approach to developing 'virtual battlefields' via interacting computer simulations - is, what it can do, who its players are, and how it is used.
The love of making things need not be confined to the physical world - electronic form giving can also be a rewarding hands-on experience. In this investigation of the possibility of craft in the digital realm, Malcolm McCullough observes that the emergence of computation as a medium, rather than just as a set of tools, suggests a growing ...
Electrical Engineering Modeling and Asynchronous Distributed Simulation Analyzing Complex Systems Whether you are designing intelligent transportation systems or buffers in ATM switches, you will find key asynchronous distributed simulation techniques in this insightful book. These techniques will help revolutionize your large-scale systems ...
This book discusses simulation techniques and procedures, simulation approaches to problem resolution, applications of simulation and more, using SLAM, an advanced FORTRAN language for simulation models.
"Modern Statistical, Systems, and GPSS Simulation, Second Edition" introduces the theory and implementation of discrete-event simulation. This text establishes a theoretical basis for simulation methodology, provides details of an important simulation language (GPSS - General Purpose Simulation System), and integrates these two elements in a ...
This book presents an outstanding collection of ten programs and supporting text that introduces students of math, science, and engineering to applications of chaos theory. The programs cover applications to such areas as mechanics, gravitation, oscillators, iterative maps, Mandelbrot and Julia sets, solutions, and ordinary differential equations. ...
"The Wiley-Interscience Paperback Series" consists of selected books that have been made more accessible to consumers in an effort to increase global appeal and general circulation. With these new unabridged softcover volumes, Wiley hopes to extend the lives of these works by making them available to future generations of statisticians, ...
Relevant to theory and research in cognitive science, this work focuses on Anderson's theory of cognitive architecture, Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT), which is a theory of the basic principles of operation built into the cognitive system.
A Hands-On Introduction that Gets You Up and Running Fast Introduction to Siman V and Cinema V This hands-on book/disk package is a practical guide to SIMAN V, and its animator, Cinema V. Written by a simulation expert and his team, this focused resource concentrates on the language, rather than the theory of simulation. It introduces the process ...
To perform computer simulation successfully, two rather different sets of skills are required. One of these relates to programming: a simulation program should do what its author intends and do it efficiently. The other is concerned with the collection and analysis of data: statistical tools have to be used in order to obtain with a minimum of ...
The use of simulation modeling and analysis is becoming increasingly more popular as a technique for improving or investigating process performance. This book is a practical, easy-to-follow reference that offers up-to-date information and step-by-step procedures for conducting simulation studies. It provides sample simulation project support ...
Digital circuit technology is the future of the telecommunications, semiconductor, and network industries. It is essential for engineers involved in VLSI and integrated circuit design to become informed of this emerging technology. This book covers all facets of the technology, from basic theories of physics to a practical guide for designing and ...
