Simulation modeling involves creating a digital and dynamic representation of a system or process and conducting experiments to predict performance under a variety of conditions. This overview of techniques, tools, modeling methods, project management best practices and demonstration models will introduce the attendee to the art and science of simulation modeling.
Rainer Dronzek has held engineering and management positions in the aerospace, oil &
gas and consulting industries. He was first introduced to simulation modeling while
working on the Space Shuttle Program at the Kennedy Space Center. His simulation-
modeling experience includes managing teams and projects; founding a consulting firm;
using, and providing training in, a wide range of software applications; working with
educational institutions; and organizing events and conferences.
AnyLogic, a global company with headquarters in Chicago, produces multi-method
simulation software used by 40% of Fortune 100 companies.
