Introduction to Business Analytics Using Simulation
Author: Jonathan P. PinderPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0323991173
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
Introduction to Business Analytics Using Simulation, Second Edition employs an innovative strategy to teach business analytics. The book uses simulation modeling and analysis as mechanisms to introduce and link predictive and prescriptive modeling. Because managers can't fully assess what will happen in the future, but must still make decisions, the book treats uncertainty as an essential element in decision-making. Its use of simulation gives readers a superior way of analyzing past data, understanding an uncertain future, and optimizing results to select the best decision. With its focus on uncertainty and variability, this book provides a comprehensive foundation for business analytics. Students will gain a better understanding of fundamental statistical concepts that are essential to marketing research, Six-Sigma, financial analysis, and business analytics. - Teaches managers how they can use business analytics to formulate and solve business problems to enhance managerial decision-making - Explains the processes needed to develop, report and analyze business data - Describes how to use and apply business analytics software - Offers expanded coverage on the value and application of prescriptive analytics - Includes a wealth of illustrative exercises that are newly organized by difficulty level - Winner of the 2017 Textbook and Academic Authors Association's (TAA) Most Promising New Textbook Award in the prior edition
International Business Management Decision-making Simulation
Author: William J. McDonald (Ph. D.)Publisher: Irwin Professional Publishing
ISBN: 9780256266870
Category : Decision making
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This Windows-based simulation and companion book are designed for use as a supplement in any international undergraduate or graduate courses taught in departments of business, economics, political science and sociology. The software provides an international business analysis and plan simulation which allows students to create multicountry business plans and compete with other student groups. There are 15 countries included in the simulation, representing three regions of the world - Asia, Europe and Latin America - along with four product categories. The product categories include beer, cosmetics, frozen foods and personal computers. The simulation acts as an interactive dynamic world marketplace where students' decisions effect future competitive characteristics and categories for all teams.

Growth Dynamics in New Markets
Author: Martin F. G. SchaffernichtPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119118220
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 475
Book Description
An innovative simulation-based approach for strategic decision making when launching new products Growth Dynamics in New Markets contains a dynamic case study and simulations that reveal what it takes to successfully introduce a product into a new market. Written by experts in the field, the text and companion website include a compelling simulation game and a variety of simulation models. Using the simulation game and computer models, readers are challenged to design and put in place a strategy about product introduction and competitive behavior. The simulation models build on each other to help to arrive at a comprehensive understanding of product uptake as well as market development and competitive dynamics. The authors present different approaches for enhancing the models and offer guidance for applying them to real-world problems. This groundbreaking text clearly shows how to develop maps of dynamic systems, formulate candidate policies and evaluate them based on the simulations. It also reveals how to use computer simulations to understand what decisions could and should be made, when to make them and how intensive they should be. The authors present an interactive approach that: Contains an innovative combination of a case study, simulation game and simulation models for developing the skills to introduce a product to the marketplace Offers targeted questions that help to enhance the understanding of the material presented Presents detailed answers and solutions to a number or real-world business challenges Features video tutorials that explain how the simulation experiments are implemented and interpreted Aids in the development an action-oriented, pragmatic understanding of the underlying forces in business Designed for students of business administration, management, industrial engineering, informatics, engineering, and public policy, Growth Dynamics in New Markets offers an innovative approach that combines the practice of dynamic reasoning and the use of simulation to design and test possible policies.
Simulation Modelling for Business
Author: Andrew GreasleyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351899988
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
Simulation Modelling has been used for many years in the manufacturing sector but has now become a mainstream tool in business situations. This is partly because of the popularity of Business Process Reengineering (BPR) and other process based improvement methods that use simulation to help analyse changes in process design. This text book includes case studies in both manufacturing and service situations to demonstrate the usefulness of the approach. A further reason for the increasing popularity of the technique is the development of business orientated and user-friendly windows-based software. This text provides a guide to the use of ARENA, SIMUL8 and WITNESS simulation software systems which are widely used in industry and available to students. Overall this text provides a practical guide to building and implementing the results from a simulation model. All the steps in a typical simulation study are covered including data collection, input data modelling and experimentation.
