Simulation modeling in project management
Imagine that you need to create a computer program. To do this, you have to hire developers, designers and testers, organize processes, draw up a development plan, constantly evaluate the performance of colleagues, and so on. The task quickly becomes complex. What are your chances of success if you are not a professional? Here, the downloadable book chapter explores how to use simulation in project management. It gives practical examples from a logistics service provider and a...

COVID-19 and Simulation
One of the key methods for gaining insight into the unknowns of the COVID-19 pandemic is to use simulation modeling. This is true for many disciplines across business and research, as reflected in the collection of public models being uploaded to AnyLogic Cloud. Here we gather a variety of COVID-19 related simulation models. See the models and try them out!

COVID 19: The Good, the Bad and the Agent Based Model
Why is it so hard to model the COVID-19 epidemic? In this guest blog Ignacio Brottier and Patricio Pipp look at how agent-based simulation modeling goes beyond traditional SEIR and its shortfalls. The first step to understanding any system is asking ourselves what it is we are trying to understand and, as the team of FiveThirtyEight well explains in their very recommended article, understanding COVID-19’s evolution is no easy task...

Analyzing electricity smart grids and markets with simulation
Energy markets are changing. They are now open to competition, households regularly generate electricity, and a necessity for more environmentally friendly modes of transport means electric vehicles are placing new demands on electricity grids. While these changes take place, electricity delivery must remain stable and affordable. Sjors Hijgenaar proposes a radical response to these developments — decentralized smart grids and direct local trade. As part of his analysis, he...
