PMH38 A DISCRETE EVENT SIMULATION (DES) MODEL TO DESCRIBE SCHIZOPHRENIA

Using Discrete Event Simulation (DES) to Model Software Development Process

This project seeks funding to support the research on expanding the knowledge of the software development process within the corporate environment in conjunction with QLabs. Software development today has a well defined workflow that can be optimized and explored through discrete event simulation in order to maximize resources and total profit of the process as a whole. The software development...

A Study to Model Human Behavior in Discrete Event Simulation

Modelling the treated course of schizophrenia: development of a discrete event simulation model.

In schizophrenia, modelling techniques may be needed to estimate the long-term costs and effects of new interventions. However, it seems that a simple direct link between symptoms and costs does not exist. Decisions about whether a patient will be hospitalized or admitted to a different healthcare setting are based not only on symptoms but also on social and environmental factors. This paper de...

Discrete Event Simulation - Production Model In SIMUL8

Computer simulation is a method for studying complex systems that are not solvable with the use of standard analytical techniques. This contribution deals with the application of simulation program SIMUL8 to the analysis of production process in company Alteko, Inc. producing radial fans. The main purpose of the computer experiments is to identify the bottleneck processes and to suggest the man...

Reduction of production disturbances of a shoemaking industry through a discrete event simulation approach

This study presents a reduction of production disturbances of a shoemaking industry through discrete event simulation approach. The study is conducted at Peacock Shoe factory found in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.  This factory faces line balancing problem that becomes production disturbance for its assembly lines. Detail time study is carried out for the selected shoe model using stopwatch. Assembly ...
