Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Employs the same painstaking thoroughness and accuracy in introducing the GPSS language that made the 1974 book so popular. Includes an educational version, GPSS/H from Wolverine Software, for personal computers that is as powerful, except in file size, as the package that costs commercial users over -5,000. Available in two versions: one with 5 1/4' disks, and one with 3 1/2' disks.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 421-423) and indexes.
Perspectives on Simulation and GPSS/H -- Transactions: Their Creation, Movement and Destruction -- More about Transaction Creation and Movement -- How Transactions are managed by GPSS/H -- Additional Test-Mode Capabilities -- Fundamental Modeling of Single Servers -- More about how transactions are managed by GPSS/H -- More imaginative Modeling of Single Servers -- Gathering information about transactions -- Expanding the set of test-mode capabilities -- Modeling groups of identical servers -- Additional blocks for controlling transaction direction and timing -- Modeling with Nonuniform Probability Distributions -- Statistical Experiments with Single-System Models -- The use of Antithetic Variates in Single-System Modeling -- Statistical Experiments with Models of Competing Alternatives -- Epilogue.
