Question

(a) Briefly explain about Types of simulation.

(b) A tourist car company finds that during the past 200 days the deemed for the car has the following frequency distribution.

Trips per week 0 1 2 3 4 5

Frequency 16 24 30 60 40 30

Using random numbers simulate the demand for a period of 10 weeks.

Answer 1

Types of Simulation

Simulation is a training and feedback method in which learners practice tasks and processes in lifelike circumstances using models or virtual reality, with feedback from observers, peers, actor-patients, and video cameras to assist improvement in skills.

There are five different types of models that are used within the different simulation programs

• Task Trainer Simulation
• Manikin-based Simulation
• Standardized Patient Simulation
• Virtual Reality Simulation
• Tissue-based Simulation
