Simulation is a very helpful and valuable work tool in
manufacturing. It can be used in industrial field allowing the
system`s behavior to be learnt and tested. Simulation provides a low
cost, secure and fast analysis tool. It also provides benefits, which
can be reached with many different system configurations. Topics to
be discussed include: Applications, Modeling, Validating, Software
and benefits of simulation. This paper provides a comprehensive
literature review on research efforts in simulation.
