To help you develop your simulation modeling skills and keep up to date with the latest AnyLogic news, we host the AnyLogic blog and post a monthly newsletter. Here, we are after your feedback – its quick!
Do you have a question on the topic of simulation or AnyLogic? Suggest it in the survey, 3 – 4 minutes is all it will take!
AnyLogic whitepapers focus on simulation related topics, they provide an overview of their subject, some deeper insight, and examples, so that readers can work better with simulation technology and see how best to apply it. Here we introduce our whitepaper on Multimethod Simulation Modeling for Business.
There are three main approaches to simulation modeling — system dynamics, discrete-event, and agent-based — each with their own strengths and ...
The concepts and the business case for using simulation with reinforcement learning are highlighted by the panelists as they discuss a series of questions from Dr. Anand Rao, PwC Partner and Global AI Lead. With commercial examples that highlight the successes and the challenges of working with the technologies, the participants demonstrate that simulation and deep reinforcement learning are especially suited.
Here is the recording of the session from the 2019 AnyLogic Conference. It’s not the shortest video on our YouTube Channel but it is interesting and informative – cast it to a big screen if you can! Enjoy!
A short blog presenting an industrial problem and its reinforcement learning solution, made using AnyLogic and developed by EII. The flexibility and customizability of AnyLogic allowed the use of RL4J to create a hybrid platform.
Read on, find out about the problem and see how to train learning agents by letting them interact with an AnyLogic environment. You will also learn the techniques used to formulate the industrial problem in a way fit for machine learning.
We have updated AnyLogic to version 8.5 and it is now available for download. Changes have also been made to the AnyLogic Cloud API. Read on for a summary of the key changes, the full list can be found in the linked change log. There's a whole lot of changes, see the new things you can do!
In connection with the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 and the first humans on the moon, the Wall Street Journal ran an Inside View article by Andy Kessler, Better Living Through Simulations. What a combination, the moon landings and simulation!
The moon landings were straight-up awesome and, perhaps like many of you, we enjoyed much of the Apollo 11 anniversary coverage. So, when we found a WSJ article featuring simulation in...
Private Cloud Lite for Linux! In recognition of the popularity of Linux in the server room, the Linux version of AnyLogic Private Cloud Lite aims to help make deployment easier. What’s more, its free!
During the evaluation period you get a fully functional AnyLogic Private Cloud instance with all the features, including...
Two AnyLogic events, on opposite sides of the planet, demonstrated the value of simulation when applied in industry. The almost simultaneous seminars also provided insight into the recent developments in cloud-based simulation as well as the combined use of simulation with artificial intelligence (AI). Here, you can find materials and photos from the events in Australia and the United Kingdom.
The How to train a policy for controlling a machine webinar demonstrated the use of a simulation environment in deep reinforcement learning. The recording is available below, along with the supplementary materials – so you can try it out for yourself and explore some of the possibilities.
The materials above in combination with the video recording of the webinar cover everything that is needed to reproduce the entire training setup.
This free educational textbook uses AnyLogic to teach the art of process centric modeling. Also known as discrete-event modeling, process-centric modeling is good for capturing business processes, where systems can be described as a sequence of actions. Capturing a system in a process-centric model is not always straightforward but, using clear examples and the simulation modeling tool AnyLogic, this book teaches you how.
