modeling‚ one dilemma that a corporation faces today is whether optimization‚ simulation‚ or a hybrid model (combination of optimization and simulation) is a better option to pursue. In this paper‚ we fundamentally distinguish the two modeling approaches – Supply Chain Optimization vs. Supply Chain Simulation‚ and the scenarios where the each option should be employed. Overview Optimization focuses on finding the optimal solution from millions of possible alternatives while meeting the given constraints

Introduction: In this lab simulation‚ we studied the different factors that go into natural selection. These factors were things such as: fertility‚ the complexity of genes‚ the use of natural selection versus not using it‚ and the rate of mutation. All of these things would then affect the amount of generations it would take to get the “target phrase.” This target phrase was used as a tool to understand the complexity of some genes compared to the simplicity of others. The first chapter in Dawkins’
