Simulation Model Verification and Validation

Robert G. Sargent

Open publisher page 54 citations

Abstract

Verification and validation of simulation models are discussed. The different approaches to deciding model validity are described; how model verification and validation relate to the model development process is specified; various validation techniques are defined; conceptual model validity, model verification, operational validity, and data validity are discussed; ways to document results are given; and a recommended validation procedure is presented. >
