Abstract
Repetitive-unit construction characteristics require a flexible planning and analysis tool for proper evaluation of alternate resource allocations. Although there are numerous conventionally applied network planning techniques, none adequately model repetitive-unit construction or allow for all the important management decisions to be considered. By providing a robust structure for the problem, process interaction simulation techniques can be used for planning and decision-analysis purposes without undue sacrifice of realism or accuracy. The included multiple-unit housing example shows both the flexibility of the approach and the ability of the manager to gain much more insight into the behavior of a complex system.
