“Spreadsheet simulation” refers to the use of a spreadsheet as a platform for representing simulation models and performing the simulation experiment. This tutorial explains the reasons for using this platform for simulation, discusses why this is frequently an efficient way to build simulation models and execute them, describes how to setup a spreadsheet simulation, and finally suggests when a...

We discuss a simulation model used in the analysis of the transport logistics of the Austrian Red Cross rescue organization. The emphasis is on the details of modeling the scheduling of ambulance service in the simulation environment ARENA. A heuristic (near-) optimal strategy is employed to coordinate patients’ transports, where some parameters with an intuitive interpretation, which are invol...
