In this lab, we will discuss different types of routing logic and how to implement them in Simio. More specifically, we will consider using the Selection Weight property to support probabilistic, conditional, and compound (i.e., probabilistic and conditional) routing. We show how to use Node Lists to implement dynamic routing logic in Simio. We will also revisit Simio Sequence Table to implement routing sequences for different entity types. And finally, we will discuss entity Free-space travel. We will develop four models based on the operation of an airport check-in and security checkpoint processes. The videos will guide you through:
- Probabilistic, conditional, and compound expressions for the Selection Weight property on links
- Using a Node List to implement different dynamic routing decisions
- Routing using a separate sequence table for each entity type
- Defining a data table and a single related sequence table for all entity types
