World Views
It is the orientation or perspective that the modeler will
adapt when modeling.
1) Event Scheduling- analyst concentrates on
events and their effect on system state.
2) Process-Interaction
The analyst thinks in terms of the processes.
The process is the life cycle of the entity inside the
system.

CHAPTER 9: RANDOM VARIATE GENERATION
Random Variate- A value being sampled from a proven
distribution of an input variable.
Ex. inter-arrival time and service time.
RV generators techniques used to generate
random variates.
Techniques in Generating Random Variates
1) Inverse Transform Technique
This technique is used to sample from
distributions such as exponential, weibull,
triangular, and empirical distributions. Most
straightforward, but not always the most
efficient.
Steps in an Inverse Transform Technique
1. Compute the cdf of the desired random variable
x.
2. Set F(X)=R on the range of X.
3. Solve the equation F(X)=R for X in terms of R.
X=f-1 (r).
4. Generate uniform random numbers and
compute the desired random variates by Xi = f1
(Ri).
Derivation of RV generator for an exponential
distribution
Ex. Given exponential distribution,
1 1 x
e ,x 0
f ( x)
0 , otherwise
xi ln(1 Ri )
or
xi ln( Ri )
2) Uniform Distribution

,a x b
f ( x) b a
0 , otherwise
Thus, the RVG is
xi a (b a ) Ri
3) Triangular Distribution
x , a x b
f ( x ) c x , b x c
0 , otherwise
