Abstract :
Taylor II is a menu-driven simulation package that is mainly used in manufacturing, warehousing and materials handling. It has been developed for the analysis and quantitative evaluation of complex processes, especially those with a dynamic character. A lot of applications in different industries show that there is an increasing need for simulation tools. This paper demonstrates the process of building, analyzing and presenting models of real-world systems with Taylor II
