Simulation analysis of an automated hospital materials handling system
Abstract
A prototype simulation of the operations of an automated hospital materials handling system is constructed in GASP IV to investigate the feasibility of the modeling scheme employed and to evaluate some alternative rules to be used in system operation. This paper describes the structure used in the model and illustrates two types of investigations and operation of the actual system.
