Lab Objective
Lab section aims to provide reasonable grounding skills on how to make use of modelling techniques
and mathematical formulations to perform successful simulation systems via the use of Arena
Simulation Software. Implementing such modeling requires comprehending the mathematical and
theoretical aspects of simulation and modeling that will be covered in the lecture section.
3
Lab Timeline
Modeling problems will be prepared based on the lecture section’s status and progress. These
problems needs to be expressed and solved almost every 2-3 consecutive lab meetings throughout
this semester. Extra reading and notes will be provided whenever needed.
