  • Abstract
    The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce the basic concepts of simulation, specifically discrete event simulation. Reasons for using simulation as a tool for decision making are presented, along with the process of conducting a simulation study. Types of available simulation software and statistical problems and considerations in simulation are also reviewed
