Simulation Results View

This view shows simulation data about running and completed simulations. It displays information about the cost of Activities such as the average cost, minimum and maximum cost and so on:

Cases

Property Meaning
Started Cases The number of cases started. This is configured on the Simulation properties of the Start event.
Finished Cases The number of cases completed. When the simulation runs to completion, this should equal the number of cases started.
Average Case Time The average time it takes to complete a case. The time unit is configured on the Simulation properties of the Start event.
Min. Case Time The fastest that a case was processed.
Max. Case Time The longest a case took to be processed.
Average Cost The average cost of a Case in the Process (based on the Participant Costs and Activity Durations).
Min. Cost The lowest cost case of the simulation run.
Max. Cost The highest cost case of the simulation run.
Cumulative Cost The total cost of all the cases in the simulation run.

Participants

Property Meaning
Name Name of the Participant.
Count Number of Participants (specified on the Simulation properties of the Participant).
Current Idle Count Number of Idle Participants (for example, if you pause the simulation before it finishes).
Average Idle Count Average number of idle Participants.
Average Idle Time Average amount of time the Participant spent not handling a case.

Activities

Property Meaning
Name Name of the Activity.
Processed Cases Number of cases processed by this Activity.
Current Queue Size Number of cases currently queued for this Activity.
Max Queue Size The maximum number of cases that were queued for this Activity.
Average Queue Size The average number of cases that were queued for this Activity.
Average Wait The average time a case spends queued.
Average Cost The average cost of an Activity (calculated using the cost of the Participant and the time spent on the Activity).
Min Cost The lowest Activity cost.
Max Cost The highest Activity cost.
Cumulative Cost The total cost of the Activity to that point in the simulation (calculated by multiplying the average cost times the number of cases).
