Appraisal of laboratory simulation experiments.

Murray A. Geisler

Expert InsightsPublished 1961

A discussion of the usefulness and applicability of the research developed during the past five years in RAND's Logistics Systems Laboratory. The author describes the circumstances that led to the creation of the laboratory, the problems undertaken, and the cost and time involved in each problem. The need is stressed not only for a closer tie between simulation and analytic techniques, but also for more recognition to problems of implementation.
