CSCI 3010U – Simulation and Modelling

This course provides a basic introduction to simulation and modelling. The goal is to provide the student with an appreciation of the role of simulation in various scientific, engineering, and business fields, and to provide some experience in writing simulation programs. This course exposes students to a class of applications which require and demand massive data storage and computational power to make large scale simulations possible. They gain an understanding of the need for parallel and vector processors to solve these problems.
