Course Description | This is a hands-on course on simulation for undergraduate students. The course includes simulation modeling and programming in general-purpose languages. The use of simulation for estimation, comparison of alternatives and optimization will be addressed. The course covers random number generation and testing, input data analysis, simulation model validation and verification, discrete event simulation, statistical output analysis and experimental design. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) Gerçek sistemlerdeki temel kavramları simülasyon modellerine dönüştürmek üzere anlar. 2) Simülasyon modellerini tanımlamak için gerçek sistemlerin kavramsal temsillerini tasarlar. 3) Modern araçları kullanarak ayrık olay simülasyon modellerini doğrular ve onaylar. 4) İstatistiksel araçlar kullanarak simülasyon çıktıları analiz eder ve karşılaştırır. 5) Modellerin oluşturulduğu sistemler için alternatifleri değerlendirmek üzere ne olursa olsun senaryoları oluşturur. 6) Belirlenmiş prosedürlere göre simülasyonda deneyler yapar ve sonuçları raporlar. 7) bir ekibin üyesi olarak etkili bir şekilde çalışır, etkili sözlü, yazılı, sanal ve grafiksel iletişimleri düzenler ve sunar, 8) sistemlerdeki sorunlar için çözüm alternatifleri önerir ve performans ölçütlerini oluşturur ve değerlendirir, 9) kullanıcı ihtiyaçlarına göre simülasyon modellerini ve çıktılarının farklı detay seviyeleriyle ifade eder, 10) simülasyon modeli oluşturmak için toplanan verileri dönüştürür, analiz eder ve yorumlar, |

Exams and quizzes: Closed book and closed notes. Homework: N/A Rules for attendance: YÖK regulations. You are responsible for the announcements made in class. Rules for late submission of assignments: N/A Missing a quiz: No make-up will be given for the missed quizzes. For certain excuses (decided by the instructor) the percentage of the missed quiz may be added to the midterm or to the final. Missing a midterm: You are expected to be present without exception and to plan any travel around these dates accordingly. Medical emergencies are of course excluded if accompanied by a doctor’s note. A note indicating that you were seen at the health center on the day of the exam is not a sufficient documentation of medically excused absence from the exam. The note must say that you were medically unable to take the exam. Provided that proper documents of excuse are presented, missed midterm by the student will be given the grade of the final exam. No make-up will be given. If you fail to take the exam on the assigned day and do not have a valid excuse, you will be given zero (0) on the exam. Employment interviews, employer events, weddings, vacations, etc. are not excused absences. Eligibility to take the final exam: YÖK regulations. Missing a final: Faculty regulations.
