Abstract	The objective of this tutorial/workshop is to provide an open forum for experienced analysts to exchange ideas on trends, problem areas, new developments, and techniques related to computer system simulation packages. This session will be informal and audience participation will be welcomed and encouraged. Several case studies will be presented to provide a basis for discussion. The rapid growth in the size, complexity, and diversity of computer systems has led to the need for a timely and accurate evaluation of the tradeoffs associated with computer system design and evaluation alternatives. Simulation techniques have been used successfully to model individual computer system components; however, these techniques ignore the component interactions which may dramatically affect total system performance. Computer system design alternatives cannot be properly evaluated without due consideration to their effect on total system performance. In order to model the entire computer system environment, simulation packages which account for component interdependencies have been developed. This tutorial presents an introduction and overview to computer system simulation packages. The material presented will be aimed at answering the following questions. 1. What is a computer simulation package? 2. Why were package developed? 3. How do the package work? 4. When should package be used? 5. What can package be used for: 6. What are the data input requirements? 7. How accurate are the packages? 8. What are the strengths/weaknesses of packages? 9. Where are the package available? To illustrate the discussion, an example model will be presented of a hypothetical online data base update/retrieval system.
