Modern Statistical, Systems, and GPSS Simulation, Second Edition

Modern Statistical, Systems, and GPSS Simulation, Second Edition introduces the theory and implementation of discrete-event simulation, establishes a theoretical basis for simulation methodology, and provides details of an important simulation language (GPSS). Additions to the second edition include coverage of random number generators with astronomic period, new entropy-based tests of uniformity, gamma variate generation, results on the GLD, and variance reduction techniques. The disk accompanying this book contains the limited educational version of GPSS/PC and many of the illustrative examples discussed in the text.
