Simulations applications in industry

Abstract

This paper shows the steps involved in developing a simulation model of industry. The General Purpose Simulation System (GPSS) has been selected to show an example of an industry simulation and how the simulation can help management in decision making problems. The paper furthermore is trying to show the effectiveness of GPSS as a simulation language. It is my hope that simulation can someday be economical enough for all business to use as a practical tool for decision making.
