The class is project-oriented: participants conduct own simulation projects in teams. The lectures provide information about project management, presentation, and documentation techniques. The project teams also present their results in the lectures. Additionally, guest lecturers report about their experience of applying simulation in practice.
The excercises are used for team meetings. Implementations, simulation runs, etc. are performed at the computer science PC pool with commercial simulation packages (e.g., Arena or AutoMod) in reserved computer hours. Possible projects are: simulation of the university cantine (Mensa), of a crossing with traffic lights, or of a cluster-based Web server. Own project ideas are possible. Alternatively, an integrated simulation environment can be developed.
