A discrete-event simulation (DES) models the operation of a system as a sequence of events in time. Each event occurs at a particular instant in time and marks a change of state in the system. [ 1 ] Between consecutive events, no change in the system is assumed to occur; thus the simulation time can directly jump to the occurrence time of the ...
A discrete event simulation software with a drag-and-drop interface for modeling simulations in 3D. January 21, 2022 [6] GoldSim: GoldSim Technology Group LLC Combines system dynamics with aspects of discrete event simulation, embedded in a Monte Carlo framework. September 21, 2015 [7] GPSS: Various A discrete event simulation language.
As continuous simulation cannot be modeled by digital computers, it is done by taking small discrete steps. This is a useful feature, since there are many cases where both, continuous and discrete simulation, have to be combined. This is called hybrid simulation, [8] which is needed in many industries, for example, the food industry. [3]
ExtendSim is a simulation program for modeling discrete event, continuous, agent-based, discrete rate, and mixed-mode processes.There are three main ExtendSim simulation model building packages: CP for modeling continuous processes; DE which adds discrete event technology; and Pro which adds discrete rate and reliability block diagramming modules.
SIMUL8 simulation software is a product of the SIMUL8 Corporation used for simulating systems that involve processing of discrete entities at discrete times.SIMUL8 allows its user to create a computer model, which takes into account real life constraints, capacities, failure rates, shift patterns, and other factors affecting the total performance and efficiency of production.

Micro Saint Sharp is a general purpose discrete-event simulation and human performance modeling software tool developed by Alion Science and Technology. [1] It is developed using C# and the .NET Framework. Micro Saint Sharp allows users to create discrete-event simulations as visual task networks with logic defined using the C# programming ...
FlexSim has been used in a variety of simulation projects involving both standard and flexible manufacturing systems. [6] Some examples include studies to determine optimal buffer sizes, [citation needed] optimizing blend components in feed production, [7] rescheduling problems in mixed-line production planning, [8] optimizing electronics assembly lines, [9] and steel production scheduling.
Simulation in entertainment encompasses many large and popular industries such as film, television, video games (including serious games) and rides in theme parks. Although modern simulation is thought to have its roots in training and the military, in the 20th century it also became a conduit for enterprises which were more hedonistic in nature.
