in Manufacturing Simulation ProjectsAbstractSimulation is a core course for many Manufacturing Engineering related programs. This courseintroduces discrete event simulation methods with emphasis on application in manufacturingsystems or service systems. The topic of queueing theory in operations research is used to illustratethe importance of simulation as a problem-solving tool. Concepts and techniques of simulationmodeling are covered. It also requires statistical concepts and techniques to obtain representativedata, to apply the data and statistics to the modeling, and evaluate the results. To help the courselearning, term projects are usually assigned to the students. The authors have been teaching thiscourse

It is untetheredand the user’s interaction with the virtual object is through finger gestures. Since the virtualobject is projected to the glass hull in front of the user’s eyes, the field of view is somewhatlimited and more suitable for simple tasks such as selecting and moving virtual objects.
