AnyLogic North America at the International Conference of the System Dynamics Society


AnyLogic North America at the International Conference of the System Dynamics Society

AnyLogic North America participated in the 31st International Conference of the System Dynamics Society, Cambridge, Massachusetts USA, July 21 – July 25, 2013. The conference brought together people from around the world to share important research and application results to build the community of those active in the field of Systems Dynamics. Since SD is one of the main modeling methods in AnyLogic 6 (along with Agent based and Discrete Event modeling), this conference was a great chance for AnyLogic North America to expand the modeling horizons of SD community. As one of the Key Sponsor of the event, our logo and company information was prominently displayed across the venue.

The AnyLogic Conference 2013 Agenda Highlights


Do you want to hear how Cardinal Health use simulation to minimize warehouse congestion? Or about a plant capacity model of GE Global Research? What simulation model is used by Centre for Research in Healthcare Engineering to explore healthcare policy choices across OECD countries? On December 12, sixteen commercial and research organizations will tell you about their experience of applying multimethod simulation modeling in their industry. The Conference program is based on case-studies and real world examples and is now available on our website. Make sure you register early to secure your attendance - spaces are limited!

First Combined AnyLogic Training in Chicago Conducted


First Combined AnyLogic Training in Chicago Conducted

AnyLogic North America conducted its first training program in their new Midwest facility last week July 15th – July 19th with great success. Over 30 students participated in the back-to-back Fundamentals Training / In-Depth training program. The diversity of the students ranged from educators, manufactures, and consultants. Some were already AnyLogic customers however there were a great deal of potential customers who participated in the class to get a solid understanding of how AnyLogic can solve their business problems and complete their evaluation process. With 3 instructors, the class enjoyed the diversity of questions as well as the range of business challenges. We even had our first High School educator who will be using AnyLogic in his Advanced Math course! In addition to the class, we were honored by Jean-Patrick Tsang, PhD of Bayser Analysis and Chad Dau, Associate Director of Marketing Analytics at Astellas Phama who were gracious enough to present the model they created for Astellas with AnyLogic using Agent-Based modeling for New Product Launch.

“Multimethod Modeling and Simulation with AnyLogic” Workshop Video Available Online


“Multimethod Modeling and Simulation with AnyLogic” Workshop Video Available Online

The video of Dr. Andrei Borshchev’s workshop “Multimethod Modeling and Simulation with AnyLogic” is now available online. The workshop took place at the Henri Fayol Institute of École des Mines in Saint-Etienne, France on June 19, 2013. Dr. Borshchev introduced theories about different simulation modeling methods and multimethod simulation. He also showed how to build models employing these different methods. This workshop would be interesting to people unfamiliar with simulation modeling and to those who want to expand their knowledge in this topic.

AnyLogic Attends TransRussia 2013

The AnyLogic Company participated in TransRussia 2013, an international logistics tradeshow, which took place from April 23-26 in Moscow, Russia. This was the 18th year that TransRussia was held. More than 500 companies from 27 countries took part in the tradeshow, including The AnyLogic Company, which hosted a booth and organized several presentations. The visitors at the AnyLogic booth learned about the newest multimethod modeling technologies and saw real-life models from logistics, supply chains, cargo transportation, and container terminal management. They received complete information on the advantages of AnyLogic simulation software, opportunities to model and implement the processes, and consulting services offered by the company.
