Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems in Simulation Modelling

  • Chapter
Artificial Intelligence in Operational Research

Abstract

Simulation modelling is one of the areas in operational research that have generated considerable interest in artificial intelligence and expert systems. This paper reviews some of the uses that AI techniques have been put to in simulation, as well as mentioning some of the uses that AI has made of simulation. This paper serves as a backcloth to the papers in this section of the book, and indicates directions that future research might go in.
