In this lab we will revisit the Simio model of the Subway® restaurant that was developed in Labs 2 and 4 and learn how to use Referenced Properties to facilitate comparison of multiple system configurations (scenarios) using a single Experiment. The videos will guide you through:
- Defining Referenced Properties (two methods)
- Using Controls to define different scenarios for an experiment
- Simultaneous comparison of scenarios using the resulting side-by-side SMORE plots
