5C: Deriving Theoretical and Empirical Distributions Using Simul8
Introduction
The Simul8 software incorporates the StatFit (www.geerms.com) package to derive theoretical and empirical distributions. We will also create time-dependent arrivals.
Deriving Theoretical Distributions in Simul8 Using the StatFit Package
- Enter your sample data in a numeric format in an Excel spreadsheet and copy it to the clipboard. For arrival data, you will need the interarrival times. This means that you may need to subtract consecutive ‘time of arrival’ data samples from one another to obtain the ‘time between arrival’ (interarrival) values. For process times, you may need to subtract ‘start of process’ times from ‘end of process’ times to obtain the process ...
