Please, put here your assignments. Do not forget to sign them. You can use ~~~~ (four tildas) for an automatic signature. Use Show preview in order to check the result before your final sumbition.

Please, strive to formulate your assignment carefully. We expect an adequate effort to formulate the assignment as it is your semestral paper. Do not forget that your main goal is a research paper. It means your simulation model must generate the results that are specific, measurable and verifiable. Think twice how you will develop your model, which entities you will use, draw a model diagram, consider what you will measure. No sooner than when you have a good idea about the model, submit your assignment. And of course, read How to deal with the simulation assignment.

Topics on gambling, cards, etc. are not welcome.

In order to avoid possible confusion, please, check if you have added approved in bold somewhere in our comment under your submission. If there is no approved, it means the assignment was not approved yet.

Criteria for evaluation of the simulation proposal

The proposal must contain:

  • What you will simulate
  • The goal of the simulation (what you analyze - i.e. not "to simulate balloon factory", but what problem should the simulation solve).
  • Who would actually use such simulation (example of such user) and how would it help him
  • What method and simulation environment you plan to use. Choose only from the development environments that we have used in the course.
  • What variables will be incorporated
  • What variables will be random
  • What exact data you will base values of your variables on
  • (In case of Monte Carlo) What exact data you will base your determination of probability distribution of your random variables on
  • What exact data you will base your formulas in the simulation (simulation behavior) on

If any of the above points are missing from the simulation proposal, the proposal is considered incomplete. Unless the proposal contains all of the above points it will not be evaluated at all (and therefore cannot be approved).

  1. Is it clear from the proposed assignment how the simulation will work?
  2. Does the simulation make sense?
  3. Is the simulation model complex enough to simulate credibly the real-world phenomenon that the simulation tries to simulate?
  4. Is the data used real and relevant for the real-world phenomenon that the simulation tries to simulate?
  5. Is the simulation feasible? (in given time by the course)

If the answer to any of the above points is no, you need to improve your proposal. Don't wait for us to tell you so - you're wasting your time.
