Introduction
This course will be an introduction to Computer Simulation. The objective of this course is to give a comprehensive treatment of all the important aspects of a simulation study including modeling, simulation software, model verification, input modeling, random number generators , statistical design and analysis of simulation experiments.The theory will be followed up by extensive programming assignments.
