In this article I present a parking lot simulator that I developed with simmer in R. It’s been a little over a year since I left the corporate world. Since then, I’ve dedicated my time and talent to improving my…
In this brief example I implement a simmer backlog simulation, using discrete-event simulation. As a matter of fact free simulation tools can provide a strong support. In my opinion free tools can replace many of the commercial discrete-event simulation licenses…
In a previous blog post I documented simmer in R for discrete-event simulation. In this post I want to provide a more hands-on practical example. It is a very simple example, to be honest. Regardless of this, and regardless of…
There are various simulation techniques of importance to supply chain data analysis and modelling. One of them is discrete-event simulation. Discrete-event simulation is especially useful for higly dynamic and interdependent systems, as is often the case in complex manufacturing systems…
In this short article I introduce the haven package in R, and how it can be used for importing data from SPSS in SAV-file format into R. I already demonstrated this as part of a longer coding example, in which…
