Flexsim contains an extremely fast simulation
engine that executes enormous amounts of events in only a short
time. The engine handles both the simulation and the model
view (visualization), but the model view can be switched off
to speed up the simulation even more. The special structure
of the simulation engine and the flexscript language lets you
change portions of your models while the simulation is running.
Flexsim is equipped with an experiment option to simulate
'what-if' scenarios. Scenarios can be run automatically and
results are stored in reports, tables and graphs. You can
analyze the performance of each scenario by a number of pre-defined
and user-defined performance indicators such as utilization,
throughput, lead-time and costs. It's easy to export results
to other applications like Microsoft® Word and Excel.
Input data for the simulation can also be directly imported
from these packages using ODBC or Dynamic Data Exchange connections.
