/methodology/approach: To achieve this objective, a computer simulation model of the existing CIM system is developed to test the performance of … flexibility of the model allows experimenting with additional factors and levels. In the simulation experiments of this research … study the effect of the dispatching rules on the performance of the CIM systems with use of terminating simulation analysis …
