This paper is a reflection on three simulations as each relates to strategic planning. The first simulation‚ “Thinking Strategically‚” highlights the importance of environmental scanning. The second simulation‚ “Developing Grand Strategies‚” challenged decisions made for a company which lead to effective strategy formulation and choices. The third simulation‚ “Creating a Strategic Road Map‚” provided a simulated experience of how to build a strategic roadmap focusing on the importance and effectiveness

Simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of modeling a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is‚ essentially‚ a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually performing that operation. Simulation software is used widely to design equipment so that the final product will be as close to design specs as possible without expensive in process modification. Simulation software with real-time response is often used in gaming

QUESTION 1: what factors led to Microsoft’s emergence as the dominant personal computer operating system provider? Is Microsoft’s dominance due to luck‚ skill or some combination of both? Microsoft’s emergence as a software superpower was due to the unfolding of a unique set of circumstance and a combination of luck and skill. Since the early ‘80s‚ Microsoft’s has a good share of the market of personal computers operating systems but the rise of this company has been widely caused by an IBM’s wrong

Case 2: American Apparel’s Unwrapping Ethics The ethical dilemma within American Apparel is classic example indicating that recognizing an ethical issue is never an easy thing. It has become a successful clothing and fashion company for decades of years and it was well-known for its insistence of product quality which are featured as whole organic and “made in US” Meanwhile‚ American Apparel was admired for its continual exploration for the optimal social warfare for its employees in terms of

In this squib‚ I defend Norcross’s claim that being unable to stop factory farms’ abuse of animals does not make it morally acceptable for one to eat meat that comes from that practice. The objection that Fred is able to stop the suffering of puppies if he personally stops the eating of cocoamone is irrelevant to someone consuming factory-farmed meat even if refusing to eat it would not end production. It is morally wrong to participate in the practice of factory-farmed animals. (Norcross‚ pg.232)

1. INTRODUCTION Simulation history is viewed in different angles including: -simulation uses e.g. analysis‚ training‚ research. - types of simulation models e.g. discrete-event‚ continuous‚ combined discrete - simulation programming languages or environments e.g. Arena‚ SIMSCRIPT‚SLAM and - application domains or communities of interest e.g. communications‚ manufacturing‚ military‚ transportation). The objective of this history is to highlight people‚ places‚ and events that have marked
