EM481 (Version: 2020 2) COURSE DETAILS


COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
EM481 SYSTEMS SIMULATION 2020 2 Systems Engineering 3.5 (BS=0.0, ET=3.5, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
Cadets learn and explore discrete event simulation techniques and tools used to analyze and improve complex systems. Applications include operations, transportation, manufacturing and logistics systems. Topics include functional modeling with functional flow diagrams, simulation theory, the modeling process, input data analysis, generation of random numbers, verification and validation of simulation models, experimental design, output analysis, and application using simulation software. The course concepts provide cadets the tools to evaluate military and civilian systems. Emphasis is placed on using simulation in the Systems Decision Process (SDP). Cadets demonstrate proficiency and develop communication skills through design projects and briefings. Cadets spend several lessons in a computer lab environment.
LESSONS: 35 @ 75 min (2.500 Att/wk) LABS: 0 @ 0 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
In-progress reviews and course project; compensatory time provided.
