Attendance during the first session is mandatory. All students who are not present during the first session will be dropped from class if they did not excuse in advance via e-Mail. All students who confirmed their participation during the first session will be graded.

The course language is English.

Only students who signed up for the class in univis/u:space are allowed to take the class (that means, that you have to at least be on the waiting list if you want to take this class). No exceptions possible.

Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Based on a small simulation project, the students will have the opportunity
to apply the theoretical knowledge and practical skills gained from the course
Simulation I. The projects will be handled by groups of at most two
people. The final implementation in the AnyLogic simulation environment
is to be presented in class and summarized in a short seminar paper.

Assessment and permitted materials

The final grade is composed of
- an intermediate presentation of the group work (30%)
- a final presentation of the project (35%)
- a term paper containing a project summary and results discussion (35%)

At least 50% have to be obtained for a positive grade. The grading key is as follows:
4: 50% to <63%
3: 63% to <75%
2: 75% to <87%
1: 87% to 100%

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

At least 50% of the overall total achievable score have to be obtained for a positive grade. The assessment is based on the students' ability to implement a small simulation project in AnyLogic, including all necessary preparatory (input data analysis) and consecutive (results interpretation and derivation of managerial implications) steps.

Examination topics

After a short intro including advanced topics in simulation (e.g., output data analysis), students will work on their assigned projects in groups of at most two.
