Modeling and Simulation

This course introduces concepts of analytic modeling and computer simulations. It encompasses mathematical techniques, algorithms, and applications available to assist and improve decision-making and understanding of various types of systems. Sample topics include discrete event simulation, mathematical and computational modeling, virtual reality, and GUI simulations. Models will progress sequentially through steps such as problem statement, formulization, implementation and simulation, visualization, and comparisons to analysis, experiment and observation. Students work on projects drawn from a variety of areas such as management, behavioral, and natural sciences; applied mathematics; engineering; gaming; computer networking; and scheduling.
