When the simulation deals with uncertainty, the model will include uncertain variables - whose values are not under our control - as well as decision variables or parameters that we can control. The uncertain variables are represented by random number generators that return sample values from a representative distribution of possible values for each uncertain element in each experimental trial or replication of the model. In such a model we use variables to represent key numerical measures of the inputs and outputs of the system, and we use formulas, programming statements, or other means to express mathematical relationships between the inputs and outputs. While simulations can be performed using physical models - such as a scale model of an airplane - our focus here is on simulations carried out on a computer.Ĭomputer simulations use a mathematical model of the real system. We do this because it is faster, cheaper, or safer to perform experiments on the model. In a simulation, we perform experiments on a model of the real system, rather than the real system itself.

Forecasting sales and production requirements for a new drug.Setting stock levels to meet fluctuating demand at retail stores.Evaluating environmental impacts of a new highway or industrial plant.Choosing drilling projects for oil and natural gas.Here's just a sample of the applications where simulation is used: Simulation is one of the most widely used quantitative methods - because it is so flexible and can yield so many useful results. Often - but not always - a simulation deals with uncertainty, in the system itself, or in the world around it. By performing simulations and analyzing the results, we can gain an understanding of how a present system operates, and what would happen if we changed it - or we can estimate how a proposed new system would behave. To run simulations with more (even thousands of) uncertain inputs and outputs, and more (even hundreds of thousands of) Monte Carlo trials, please contact Frontline Systems about using Risk Solver Add-on with Risk Solver Pro.Simulation is a flexible methodology we can use to analyze the behavior of a present or proposed business activity, new product, manufacturing line or plant expansion, and so on (analysts call this the 'system' under study). This server has a finite capacity, as currently provisioned (and paid for) by Frontline Systems, so at times there can be delays.

Move from simple average-best-worst case analysis to see the full range of possible outcomes, and quantify your downside risk and upside potential. Risk Solver Add-on helps you go beyond what-if analysis to perform realistic risk analysis. You can even step through the Monte Carlo trials and see each result calculated on your worksheet.

Summary statistics such as mean and standard deviationĬopy statistics and percentiles into a worksheet cell range with one click. Point and click to mark cells computing results that you want to monitor during the simulation.Ĭlick to run and in a few seconds, you'll have results from 1,000 Monte Carlo trials, with charts and statistics:

Choose from 30 different continuous distribution, from Beta to Weibull, and 8 discrete distributions, from Bernoulli to Poisson.

Point and click to insert probability distributions into cells representing uncertain inputs in your model, and set their parameters.
