In this blog post, we will look at the most interesting and informative scientific papers from the Winter Simulation Conference over the last three years. You will find studies that are dedicated to simulation application in a range of areas.
Why use simulation modeling in education and research? This is the question we answer in our new white paper. In the paper, we dive into how simulation is used in both teaching and research. If you are conducting research, teaching, or just starting you journey of learning, simulation is a powerful and enlightening tool to work with.
Dive into simulation in research and education in our white paper, try the example models, and see how simulation is being used. Read on!
We have a new white paper about the value of simulation modeling for consultants and their clients and the benefits of choosing the right simulation modeling tool.
Simulation modeling offers organizations an alternative to the traditional methods of spreadsheet-based analysis or linear programming and can be superior when developing solutions for complex systems and processes. In many cases, consultants are key to accessing these possibilities that simulation modeling has to offer. Find out more and download...
Advanced material handling at Walmart resulted from simulation modeling. Leading companies around the world are benefiting from using simulation modeling in their material handling design and analysis. Learn why and how simulation is ideal for complex material handling challenges in our white paper with real-world business cases...
Dr. Igor Mazurok and his team applied AnyLogic simulation in the research of blockchain consensus mechanisms. Focusing on the Java based Nxt network, the team propose supplementing the network’s Proof of Stake consensus mechanism with a Proof of Greed mechanism so that transaction verification is rewarded more fairly.

Energy markets are changing. They are now open to competition, households regularly generate electricity, and a necessity for more environmentally friendly modes of transport means electric vehicles are placing new demands on electricity grids. While these changes take place, electricity delivery must remain stable and affordable.
Sjors Hijgenaar proposes a radical response to these developments — decentralized smart grids and direct local trade. As part of his analysis, he develops an agent-based simulation of a Dutch neighborhood that uses a smart grid and local trade to show the benefits for efficiency and reliability. How can this work?
Our AnyLogic partners in China obtained a paper relating to COVID-19 and permission to publish a translation.
Writing this now, there is obviously a lot of interest surrounding the spread of the COVID-19, the coronavirus disease. The paper studies the prevalence of infection in a population using agent-based simulation and looks at the importance of factors such as the frequency of close contact among a population.
Simulation is important for artificial intelligence because it provides solutions to some of the main problems faced by AI developers today. These solutions have immediate potential and are producing results already. Read on and get the whitepaper with example model...
AnyLogic whitepapers focus on simulation related topics, they provide an overview of their subject, some deeper insight, and examples, so that readers can work better with simulation technology and see how best to apply it. Here we introduce our whitepaper on Multimethod Simulation Modeling for Business.
There are three main approaches to simulation modeling — system dynamics, discrete-event, and agent-based — each with their own strengths and ...
Let your car drive around as a taxi when you are not using it says Tesla. While Waymo offers taxis without drivers to residents of Phoenix, AZ. Seemingly significant changes to the ways we make journeys are already underway and big business is involved, but what will their impact on our surroundings be?
A recent paper uses simulation modeling to investigate...
