Abstract
- When designing simulation models of large-scale logistics systems in manufacturing, such as automotive industry or engineering and petrochemical production, creators of these models consider how to properly render the whole system in one simulation model as accurately as possible. One possible approach to designing such models is the application of a hierarchic structure. The structure groups and combines the essential elements of simulation models into larger units. The aim of the paper is to analyse and identify the potential of the computer simulation using a hierarchic structure for increasing the effectiveness of designing large-scale logistics systems in manufacturing. A case study from the automotive industry using EXTENDSIM software environment is used for that purpose. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
