Modeling and Simulation: An Application-Oriented Introduction

This book provides an introduction to mathematical and computer—oriented modeling and to simulation as a universal methodology. It therefore addresses various model classes and their derivations. And it demonstrates the diversity of approaches that can be taken: be it discrete or continuous, deterministic or shastic. A common underlying theme throughout the book are the means in which one obtains practical simulation results from these different abstract models.
