New versions of Anylogic comes very often, sometimes its annoying to reinstall it.

You can every time ask support any question you want and they answer you in short. There is well done documentation with good tips and advises.

There are a lot of free tutorials, video lectures, examples, books that can help you start build complicated beautiful models. You can create beautiful animated 3D presentation of your model. You can create your own blocks and use them to build models like with standard block. For example you can send message on screen or send message to interact with other agent during events, such as arrive to destination point, take place in queue, leave queue, start processing on a device.

You can easy add your own program code lines to handle any event, that happens during modelling. At same every agent can act in dynamical changing world, where environment based on discrete event modelling. For example you can create multi-agent model, where agent's behaviour contains inner system dynamic model. Integrate all types of simulation modelling in one tool. I use it to model business systems and processes to collecting statistic or optimization. Sometimes, some of the logic in some examples do not make sense.Ĭommentaires : Overall experience with Anylogic is very good. Simply put, Anylogic is not for the basic user, neither is it user-friendly or suitable for non-programmers or users with minimal coding skills. The Help facility does not explain terms (functions, parameters, collections etc) clearly.

Training tutorials that explain how to use the software are near unavailable. Incorporating java codes when building the smallest of models is frustrating. They make building models using Anylogic herculean and onerous. Suitable for modelling both manufacturing and service operations. It support the production of hybrid models. It combines multiple libraries for modelling systems using low level, mid-level and high level simulation modelling techniques. Frankly, the experience has not gone smoothly. I would absolutely love to be getting to use this tool more but the costs and time it takes for me to code as someone that's not trained in the field are costly.Ĭommentaires : I have tried using it to model service operations. The price is so high that it's very hard for me as a junior academic to get someone to fund even the university edition and has always been an issue. They also could really work on the graphics or at least ability for users to connect to make their own graphics. Learning to code is very hard for it and they need better examples and more support. Most others only focus on one tool or maybe two (such as most system dynamics software). From the methods that can be implemented to the ability to connect or interface with other programs and tools, it is the complete package. It's the most versatile of the software packages for systems modeling by a landslide. It allows me to be creative and artistic in ways other packages don't, but it could use more ways for sure (such as in aligning text or objects more easily or better graphics). I was becoming jaded in academia until I was sent on a training to learn to use it and it's just so versatile that it makes me have faith in academia again because we don't all have to use one hammer and make everything a nail. Having completed this tutorial you should be able to build various multi‐method models with more confidence and efficiency.Commentaires : I absolutely love this software. We will highlight the “points of interaction” of agents and system dynamics and try to show that model elements belonging to different approaches live a single space of AnyLogic model and can easily access each other. The goal of this tutorial is to show step‐by‐step how to build a combined AB+SD model in AnyLogic using one particular architecture. The choice of model architecture (how to partition the model into components, what to aggregate, which granularity to use, what behavior is best mapped to a process diagram, and what – to a statechart, etc) belongs mainly to the domain of art and intuition of the modeler and is outside the scope of this short tutorial. Any kind of mixed architecture is possible due to flexible object‐oriented AnyLogic modeling language. Moreover, you can combine different methods in one model: put agents into an environment whose dynamics is defined in SD style, use process diagrams or SD to define internals of agents, etc, etc. AnyLogic allows you to build a simulation model using multiple methods: System Dynamics, Agent Based and Discrete Event (Process‐centric) modeling.
