Network Modeling and Simulation: Concepts and Applications introduces the basic concepts behind using modeling and simulation in solving real-life problems. It addresses some of the practical limitations that are usually faced by developers when modeling complex or large-scale systems, as well as some of the ways to alleviate these problems.
Network Modeling and Simulation is a practical guide to using modeling and simulation to solve real-life problems. The authors give a comprehensive exposition of the core concepts in modeling and simulation, and then systematically address the many practical considerations faced by developers in modeling complex large-scale systems. The authors provide examples from computer and telecommunication networks and use these to illustrate the process of mapping generic simulation concepts to domain-specific problems in different industries and disciplines.

Key features:



Provides the tools and strategies needed to build simulation models from the ground up rather than providing solutions to specific problems.
Includes a new simulation tool, CASiNO built by the authors.
Examines the core concepts of systems simulation and modeling.
Presents code examples to illustrate the implementation process of commonly encountered simulation tasks.

Offers examples of industry-standard modeling methodology that can be applied in steps to tackle any modeling problem in practice.

Dr. Guizani is currently a Full Professor and the Chair of the Computer Science Department at Western Michigan University. Mr. Qadan is the General Manager of Equinox International. He worked and served as a Senior Technical Director for OPNET Technologies (leading modelling and simulation vendor) between 2002 and 2005.
