… a comprehensive account of the various aspects of conceptual modeling. … a very useful supplement to the traditional literature on simulation methods. The book will also be very useful to teachers and students. … this book offers rich material for an adequate expansion of any simulation course … Furthermore, it can be used in an autonomous course on modeling. … Overall, the book is a comprehensive and useful review of the state of the art of conceptual modeling ideas, approaches, and applications. I recommend it to simulation practitioners, researchers, and teachers. —Computing Reviews, January 2011 This volume collects different perspectives on modeling the dynamics of a system as a series of discrete events at which the state of the system changes. … The contributors investigate the relationship between complexity and model performance, show how software engineering principles can be applied to conceptual modeling for discrete-event simulation, and address the importance of structuring the problem effectively. —SciTech Book News, February 2011
