Integration of Dynamic Resource Management in Discrete Event Models Using Arena Software

Computer modelling of many real life systems is always challenged with how the dynamic changes of resources and queues are handled and integrated. In this paper, we integrate the dynamic changes of resources and queues in a discrete event model using Rockwell Software Arena, one of most used software tools in modelling discrete events, as it includes and considers the resources by queuing components both at fixed and predetermined level. The model proposed by the authors will extend this to the dynamic level by including the multiple queues that may require regrouping, verification and reallocation. The structure of this new model simply replaces all the external approaches to the management and synchronization of the resources by an internal/within the software integration structure. This model may also be considered and added to the Rockwell Arena Smart file library as a solution to dynamic resource management.
