摘要: This chapter discusses the applications of computer modeling for business management. Using several common situations, ways in which models can simplify management decisions are discussed. Computer simulation employs program to give information about how system might respond under different conditions. However, is only helpful if model and data used accurate enough. The choice a depends on questions one wants be answered system. A normal operation vending machine very from will react being kicked by vandals or frustrated customers. includes specification its inputs outputs, internal states. It must also include rules specifying state output change over time as new added.
