OOPM/RT: a multimodeling methodology for real-time simulation
Lee K., Fishwick P. ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation 9(2): 141-170, 1999. Type: Article
This well-written paper describes a method for automatically selecting the best levels of abstraction and detail for forming a simulation model that will execute within a constrained time horizon while meeting a prescribed accuracy. Th...

Would-be worlds
Casti J. (ed), John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, NY, 1996. Type: Book (9780471123088)
This fascinating book touches lightly on a diverse collection of computer simulation models. Casti also presents his rules for good models. It is hard to characterize the audience for this book. It is not a classroom text, a reference ...

Transition times
Lenk P., Rao A. Management Science 41(7): 1117-1129, 1995. Type: Article
A theorem and two examples show that the Poisson arrival process can be generalized so that interarrival times have a generalized F distribution. This generalization arises when one considers a heterogeneous population subjected to sho...
