IET 56000 - Discrete Event Simulation

Credit Hours: 3.00. This course provides students opportunity to apply discrete event system simulation to design, analyze, and improve complex systems such as business and industrial systems. Theoretical background of discrete event process simulation concepts will be covered. Topics include systems concepts, modeling systems using discrete events, and modeling of various industrial and commercial systems through simulation. Theoretical topics include random variable generation, model verification and validation, statistical analysis of output, variance reduction techniques and optimization via simulation. High-level commercial simulation languages will be utilized. Students will complete and present a simulation project. Graduate student status or senior status with instructor approval. Leveling courses may be required based upon student undergraduate degree. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer.
