Abstract

A simulation-based approach does not solve the underlying model by the means of mathematical calculus [167], but rather by varying different values for the input parameters of the model and analyzing the resulting outputs. Due to the complexity of supply chain systems, a simulation model needs to be endowed with an appropriate experiment setup for the efficient identification and assessment of the dynamics we want to find.
