Hey there, simulation enthusiasts! I’m excited to share some insights about a fantastic new tool from the Analysis library in ExtendSim – the Analysis Manager block.
This nifty block is designed to streamline your analytical processes and make your life a whole lot easier. The Analysis Manager acts as a data management system for consolidated control of parameters and collection of model results. Here's how:

For the past several years I have been wanting to learn Python as it has been growing in popularity. Recently I decided to take a few courses at my local university and they required a familiarity of Python. So, I finally began to learn Python and I want to share my experience because Python can be a valuable tool for every simulation modeler.

Is it possible to build an agent-based simulation (ABS) model in ExtendSim? Certainly. We recently helped build a model of the intensive care unit (ICU) of a hospital. The purpose of the model was to study the impact of facility design. We used ExtendSim to compare two facility designs by looking at how nurses interact with each other when requesting patient care assistance. The model turned out to a good example of an ABS model, and it was straightforward to build in ExtendSim.
