Computer simulation in management science / Michael Pidd.
"The 5th edition of this book is essential for management science students, MBAs and practitioners in this area. It shows how practical simulation models are built and used, and provides the theory needed to do this - whatever software is used. It covers the modelling methods, computing and sta...
