ISYE-6644 Module 4 Questions with Verified
Correct Answers
Problem Formulation
Statement of problem. First step in designing a simulation
Objectives and planning
What specific questions to answer. Second step in designing a simulation
Model building
Both an art and a science. Sometimes its an equation or something like a m/m/k model. Step
3 in designing a simulation
Data collection
What kind of data and how much, 4th step
Coding
Decide on language. modeling Paradigm: Event-scheduling and Process-interaction. 5th step
in designing a simulation
Verification
is the code ok? if not go back to step 5. this is the 6th step in designing a simulation
Validation
is model ok? if not, go back to step 3 and 4. this is the 7th step
Experimental Design
what experiements need to be run to efficiently answer our questions? this is the 8th step
