Simulation in automotive industries: reducing human error in simulation in General Motors

Published: 07 December 2003 Publication History

Abstract

This paper focuses on the steps taken to minimize human error in simulation modeling in General Motors. While errors are costly and undesirable in any field, they are especially harmful in simulation which has been struggling to gain acceptance in the business world for a long time. The solution discussed in this paper can be summarized as "enter the data once and use the best tool for the job."
