Learning outcomes
|
The main goal of the course is to familiarize students with the elementary principles related to experimental method of modelling & discrete simulation on digital computers.
Passing the course enables to manage fundamental approaches related to experimental method of discrete simulation and its applications.

|
Assessment methods and criteria
|
Oral examination, Written examination, Home assignment evaluation
Given assignment approves that a student attended lessons in a required scale and fulfilled qualified requirements (elaboration of elementary simulation models focused on training of basic simulation techniques).
