Network Modeling and Simulation is a practical guide to
using modeling and simulation to solve real-life problems. The
authors give a comprehensive exposition of the core concepts in
modeling and simulation, and then systematically address the many
practical considerations faced by developers in modeling complex
large-scale systems. The authors provide examples from computer and
telecommunication networks and use these to illustrate the process
of mapping generic simulation concepts to domain-specific problems
in different industries and disciplines.



Key features:

* Provides the tools and strategies needed to build simulation
models from the ground up rather than providing solutions to
specific problems.

* Includes a new simulation tool, CASiNO built by the
authors.

* Examines the core concepts of systems simulation and
modeling.

* Presents code examples to illustrate the implementation process
of commonly encountered simulation tasks.

Offers examples of industry-standard modeling methodology that
can be applied in steps to tackle any modeling problem in
practice.

Dr. Guizani is currently a Full Professor and the Chair of the Computer Science Department at Western Michigan University. Mr. Qadan is the General Manager of Equinox International. He worked and served as a Senior Technical Director for OPNET Technologies (leading modelling and simulation vendor) between 2002 and 2005.
