Why simulation modeling?
- risk-free environment Simulation modeling provides a safe way to test and explore different “what-if” scenarios. Make the right decision before making real-world changes.
- save money and time Virtual experiments with simulation models are less expensive and take less time than experiments with real assets.
- visualization Simulation models can be animated in 2D/3D, allowing concepts and ideas to be more easily verified, communicated, and understood.
- insight into dynamics Unlike spreadsheet- or solver-based analytics, simulation modeling allows observation of system behavior over time at any level of detail. E.g., you can check warehouse storage space utilization at any given date.
- increased accuracy A simulation model can capture much more details than an analytical model, which provides for increased accuracy and more precise forecast.
- handle uncertainty Uncertainty in operations’ time and outcome can be easily represented in simulation models, which allows you to measure risk and find more robust solutions.
Multimethod simulation modeling
Develop simulation models using all three modern methods:
The three methods can be used in any combination, with one software, to simulate business systems of any complexity. In AnyLogic simulation software, you can use various visual modeling languages: process flowcharts, statecharts, action charts, and stock & flow diagrams.
AnyLogic was the first tool to introduce multimethod simulation modeling, and still remains the only software that has that capability.
Animation and visualization
- Convert flowcharts into interactive movies with spectacular 3D and 2D graphics.
- Present your simulation models to stakeholders in a visually attractive and self-explanatory way.
- Use the extensive set of graphical objects to visualize vehicles, staff, equipment, buildings, and other items and processes related to your business.
- Import custom 3D models, images, CAD drawings, and shape files into your simulations.
- Make your simulation models interactive by adding intuitive navigation and controls.
- Turn your simulations into comprehensive management dashboards.
Industry-specific libraries
- Process Modeling Library for generic business processes or workflows.
- Fluid Library to simulate bulk cargo and liquid transfer in industries like mining or oil & gas.
- Rail Library for rail transportation, terminals, and yards.
- Pedestrian Library for pedestrian flows in airports, stadiums, stations, or shopping malls.
- Road Traffic Library for car, truck, and bus movement on roads, parking lots, and factory sites.
- Material Handling Library for manufacturing and warehouse processes.
GIS maps integration
- AnyLogic simulation software provides the unique ability to use GIS maps within your simulation models.
- Maps can be applied to model systems like supply chains, logistics networks, and other cases when you need to take into account locations, roads, routes, or regions.
- Built-in search in the style of Google Maps allows you to easily locate cities, streets, roads, hospitals, shops, and bus stops by using the map data. The search works both when you design the model and when the model is running.
- Simulation model elements can be placed on the map and moved along existing roads and routes based on real spatial data.
