- Terminating simulation and steady-state simulations:
- A terminating simulation is one that runs for some
duration of time
, where 
is a specified event or set of
events which stops the simulation.
- A steady-state simulation is a simulation whose
objective is to study long-run, or steady-state, behavior of a
non-terminating system.
- Examples of terminating simulation (Example 12.4 - 12.7) on
pages 435-436.
- Examples of steady-state simulation (Example 12.8 - 12.9) on
page 437.
