Simulation with Arena

by W. David Kelton, Randall P. Sadowski, Nancy Swets

"Simulation with Arena" provides a comprehensive treatment of simulation using industry-standard Arena software. The text starts by having the reader develop simple high-level models, and then progresses to advanced modeling and analysis. Statistical design and analysis of simulation experiments is integrated with the modeling chapters, reflecting the importance of mathematical modeling of these activities. An informal, tutorial writing style is used to aid the beginner in fully understanding the ideas and topics presented. The academic version of Arena and example files are available through the book's website.

Verified instructors can also download a 30-seat site license of Arena for use in their course.

This is the textbook I used for my MIS 587 class. It describes the Arena simulation language.
