Simulation, Sixth Edition continues to introduce aspiring and practicing actuaries, engineers, computer scientists and others to the practical aspects of constructing computerized simulation studies to analyze and interpret real phenomena. Readers will learn to apply the results of these analyses to problems in a wide variety of fields to obtain effective, accurate solutions and make predictions. By explaining how a computer can be used to generate random numbers and how to use these random numbers to generate the behavior of a stochastic model over time, this book presents the statistics needed to analyze simulated data and validate simulation models.

A work in introductory statistics, which provides an explanation of intuition and ideas behind the statistical methods. It includes a supplement which shows students how to come to the answers shown in the back of the text. It includes solutions to all of the odd numbered exercises.

On-line and off-line quality control are the two methods used to discern a products reliability of quality. Though they are disparate techniques, both methods are used to achieve the same result. This work integrates the two techniques to present coverage of statistical methods of quality control.
