Simulation, Consulting and Freelancing Articles

When you build a simulation model, you get to learn how the business work. On this blog we want to show an example on what we learn from the business in one of our projects. You can check the project details here: https://noorjax.com/portfolios/cash-iot/ Armored couriers, also known as armored truck […]

The contest is over and the winners are Guilherme Heinen with this model and Maximilian Selmair with this model, who acheived Level 4. Introduction Pallet Racks in the industry often use automated systems to move pallets around. But AnyLogic doesn’t have any built-in functionality to add these complexities to a[…]

When potential clients (whether it’s a student or a large organization) reach us to make a simulation model, they often ask, before sending any requirement, what does this requirement need to have, in order to be complete enough to evaluate costs, feasibilty and timeline. In 2018, we wrote an article[…]

Have you ever wondered why competing physical stores locate themselves close to each other as a cluster? Since we live in the AnyLogic world, we will use simulations and artificial intelligence to analyze this mystery, but this question is a classical Game Theory problem, so let’s start by discussing this[…]

Joaquín Guzman recently finished an internship at Noorjax for a total of 2 months, where he was able to support the development of simulation models and the validation of these models using data science techniques. On this post we are briefly describing his activities so if you are interested in[…]

Bulkdozer Transportation – AnyLogic Contest The AnyLogic contest #1 is over and we are pleased to announce the winners Emile Zankoul and Pavel Lelis who won $100 usd each.

Placing a Camera on an Agent The Importance of 3D Animations We all know what 3D animation is, but little is said about how useful it is for the modeler and the stakeholders. An animation can act as a tool for the modeler to correct errors during the development phase,[…]

I was recently asked if System Dynamics (SD) is dead. And this is in fact an interesting question. In the industry, the use of discrete-events (DE) and agent-based (AB) models vastly surpasses the contribution of SD. And SD seems to be in an eternal struggle to get more popular and[…]
