Simulation Modeling and Arena (CC BY-NC-ND)

Discrete-event simulation is an important tool for the modeling of complex systems and is used to represent manufacturing, transportation, and service systems in a computer program to perform experiments on a computer. Simulation modeling involves elements of system modeling, computer programming, probability and statistics, and engineering design. This is an introductory textbook for a first course in discrete-event simulation modeling and analysis for upper-level undergraduate students as well as entering graduate students. The text is focused on engineering students (primarily industrial engineering); however, the text is also appropriate for advanced business majors, computer science majors, and other disciplines where simulation is practiced.

Statistical Methods in Quality Control [PDF] (CC BY-SA)

This book is the outcome of more than 30 years teaching a course titled “Statistical Quality Control” to B.S. students. The book is divided into fourteen chapters that cover the topics on statistical quality control needed for a one-semester course. Due to the importance of control charts and Acceptance Sampling Standards, most chapters of the book deal with the control charts and Standard Sampling Tables.
