Introduction:
This page includes research report for the semester project and its requisities.
• Name of the simulation: Operation of private dental office
• Course: 4IT496 Simulace systémů v angličtině (ZS 2020/2021)
• Author: Bc. Alena Dufková
• Type: System dynamic
• Modeling tool: Vensim
Problem definition
The topic of the simulation was chosen with a view of understanding to the processes and connections in a dental office. The author already followed this theme in her bachelor thesis and is actively interested in becoming dental hygienist, if the main focus in informatics should not go well.
Simulated data and conditions are from a real private dental office situated in central Bohemia. The Simulation consists of the aspects influencing the company operations from within and from the outside. Nowadays even the COVID-19 is influencing the revenues and it impacts the common procedures at work. The goal is to help the specific dental office to see its progress and overall stats. They could see ¨some hidden opportunities that might be available once they get their hands on the simulation. Whatsmore the results should be appliable to any other average private dental office.
Method
When selecting the possible means to run the simulation, two options were considered. Using Simprocess or Vensim. Both programs can very practically capture the status and running of the company. They can also capture the needs of the company for its healthy life cycle. However, Vensim was eventually chosen, thanks to its more dynamic environment, taking into account the influence of COVID-19 on the operation of the company. These links would be far more difficult to capture with the unselected program.
