    Comparing Discrete-Event Simulation and System Dynamics: Users’ Perceptions

    This paper is the first of its type in that it provides an empirical study comparing the two simulation approaches of discrete-event simulation (DES) and system dynamics (SD). Prior comparison work is limited ...

    Using a model of the performance measures in Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) to take action: a case study in health care

    This paper uses a case study of a multidisciplinary colorectal cancer team in health care to explain how a model of performance measures can lead to debate and action in Soft System Methodology (SSM). This stu...
