About the Author

About the Authors JERRY BANKS, professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Georgia Tech is the lead author. Dr. Banks is the author or co-author of many texts in simulation and other areas. Prominent in the simulation community, he served for eight years as the IIE representative to the board of the Winter Simulation Conference, and two years as Chair of that body. He has been very active in simulation consulting. His co-authors are Barry Burnette, Henry Kozloski, and Jimmy Rose. They are recent recipients of Master's Degrees in Industrial and Systems Engineering from Georgia Tech and have been influential in writing the book from the perspective of the student.

From the Back Cover

A Hands-On Introduction that Gets You Up and Running Fast Introduction to Siman V and Cinema V This hands-on book/disk package is a practical guide to SIMAN V, and its animator, Cinema V. Written by a simulation expert and his team, this focused resource concentrates on the language, rather than the theory of simulation. It introduces the process-interaction features of SIMAN, and shows you how to use them efficiently and productively. Introduction to Siman V teaches by example, including a wealth of computer inputs and outputs. Plus, it features a single running example throughout the text an example that becomes increasingly complex as you master each new feature. Here s How the Book is Organized:

  • Chapter 1 provides an overview of the simulation process
  • Chapter 2 provides an overview of Siman V
  • Chapters 3-11 describe Siman V using examples that increase in complexity as new features are added
  • Chapters 12 and 13 describe advanced features of Siman V
  • Chapter 14 introduces Cinema V within the Arena environment
Introduction to Siman V and Cinema V comes complete with disks containing computer codes for major examples and a student version of Siman V along with Input and Output Processors. The academic version of the Arena environment is available from Systems Modeling Corporation.
