Integrating soft systems methodology to aid simulation conceptual modeling
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
This article presents an integration method that makes use of soft systems methodology (SSM), a complex problem-solving approach, during the conceptual phase of simulation studies, and concludes that the use of SSM to develop the conceptual model enabled identification of the study objectives, thus avoiding errors and reworks.
