Features: This book focuses on manufacturing enterprises, elaborating on the principles and methods of discrete event modeling and simulation technology in the analysis of production enterprises. It aims to provide readers with a correct understanding of computer simulation technology in the research and analysis of production systems. The book is divided into nine chapters. First, it explains the role and principles of computer simulation technology in production system analysis. Then, it discusses modeling methods for the basic elements of production systems. Next, it introduces methods for simulation input, output, and system evaluation, followed by a systematic introduction to an example of simulating and analyzing a production system. The book covers two sets of discrete event simulation software: Arena and Witness. This book can serve as a textbook or main reference for production and management courses in higher education institutions, as well as for industrial enterprise management personnel in further education and training.
