CEN 570: Simulation and Modeling

During this course, a student is exposed to different subjects in the topic of simulation and modeling.
These subjects include discrete-event simulation approaches, simulation cycle, probability and
statistics in simulation, mathematical and statistical models, validation and verification of simulation
models, random number generation, building valid and credible simulation models, modeling of data
simulation, and analyzing output data. The student is also introduced to some simulation software,
the concept of distributed and parallel simulation, simulation techniques of some well-known systems
such as queues, some applications to computer systems, and a number of realistic case studies.
