Overview
- Introduces modelling methodologies and models to enable the derivation of efficient and effective ways to produce good solutions
- Presents a series of case studies demonstrating how heuristic and analytical approaches may be used to solve large and complex problems
- Includes appendices covering queuing theory, function optimisation techniques, simulation for evaluation of PP&C systems, Boolean and fuzzy logic, transport modelling, and opportunistic networks
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: Simulation Foundations, Methods and Applications (SFMA)
