In recent years, there has been a growing debate, particularlyin the UK and Europe, over the merits of using discrete-eventsimulation (DES) and system dynamics (SD); there are now instanceswhere both methodologies were employed on the same problem. Thisbook details each method, comparing each in terms of both theoryand their application to various problem situations. It alsoprovides a seamless treatment of various topics--theory,philosophy, detailed mechanics, practical implementation--providinga systematic treatment of the methodologies of DES and SD, whichpreviously have been treated separately.
