Teaching simulation to ten thousand students: American-European cooperation and perspectives
Ingolf Ståhl, Richard G. Born, Henry Herper · Winter Simulation Conference · 2013
This paper deals with the cooperation between three European and American simulation teachers, who together have taught simulation to over ten thousand students in five countries. They have, based on student feedback, developed an educational version of GPSS, the General Purpose Simulation System. This simplified system, aGPSS, has proved to be very easy to learn and also to use, for example, in student projects. The three teachers have also together written simulation textbooks in English and German.
