Discrete event simulation
- Time in simulation progresses based on events rather
than fixed intervals.
- Clock “jumps” between intervals
- Fastest DES tool on the market

Uniform Distribution
SLIDE 12
www.SIMUL8.com
Normal Distribution
- 95% range (lower): mean
– 2* standard deviation
- 95% range (upper): mean
+ 2* standard deviation
