A tutorial on conceptual modeling for simulation

S Robinson - 2015 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC), 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

Conceptual modelling for simulation Part I: definition and requirements

S Robinson - Journal of the operational research society, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
Conceptual modelling is probably the most important aspect of a simulation study. It is also
the most difficult and least understood. Over 40 years of simulation research and practice …

Changing the paradigm: Simulation, now a method of first resort

TW Lucas, WD Kelton, PJ Sánchez… - Naval Research …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Decades ago, simulation was famously characterized as a “method of last resort,” to which
analysts should turn only “when all else fails.” In those intervening decades, the …

Conceptual modelling: knowledge acquisition and model abstraction

K Kotiadis, S Robinson - 2008 Winter Simulation Conference, 2008 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

Conceptual modeling for simulation

S Robinson - 2013 Winter Simulations Conference (WSC), 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

Exploring the relationship between simulation model accuracy and complexity

S Robinson - Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Little is known about the relationship between the accuracy of a discrete-event simulation
model and its complexity. Despite this, authors propose that increasing model complexity …
