This book contains the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Modeling and Simulation in Engineering, Economics, and Management, MS 2013, held in Castellón de la Plana, Spain, in June 2013. The event was co-organized by the AMSE Association and the SoGReS Research Group of the Jaume I University. This edition of the conference paid special attention to modeling and simulation in diverse fields of business management. The 28 full papers in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on: modeling and simulation in CSR and sustainable development; modeling and simulation in finance and accounting; modeling and simulation in management and marketing; modeling and simulation in economics and politics; knowledge-based expert and decision support systems; and modeling and simulation in engineering.

This top-selling book presents, in a straightforward, application-driven manner, the basic statistical techniques necessary for preparing individual business forecasts and long-range plans. The emphasis is on the application of techniques by management for decision-making. This essential book provides understandable coverage of several important topics, often omitted from other books, including econometrics; autocorrelation analysis and the use of Box-Jenkins techniques; judgmental forecasting techniques; and the means of selecting the correct forecasting technique and analyzing data. The book also reviews statistical concepts prior to introducing material that requires an understanding of those concepts. The sixth edition of Business Forecasting has been revised to include instructions on using Excel spreadsheets and the statistical package MINITAB in forecasting. An essential reference for every professional in a business of any size, from large corporations to small family-run firms.

Este es el libro guía de un curso universitario de Estadística Descriptiva y Probabilidad introductorio. Está escrito en un lenguaje sencillo y claro para favorecer el encuentro inicial con los conceptos básicos y también propone ideas de tipo didáctico a diferentes tipos de profesionales que se dedican a la enseñanza de esta disciplina. Es un libro diseñado para ser seguido en una clase presencial que motiva la discusión de diferentes temáticas y que puede ser considerado como texto de transición, porque permite a los estudiantes acercarse a los conceptos por medio de aplicaciones, mucho antes de concentrarse en aspectos teóricos. Por esta última razón se aconseja acompañarlo con otras referencias. El libro contiene seis capítulos. El primero, sobre estadística descriptiva, introduce el lenguaje de la estadística y muestra diferentes formas gráficas de resumir datos. El segundo capítulo gira en torno a los estadísticos de centro y dispersión, con énfasis en su interpretación. El tercer capítulo hace una introducción al concepto de regresión y muestra al estudiante cómo puede ser usada esta técnica. El capítulo cuatro aborda el concepto de probabilidad como fundamento para el estudio de las variables aleatorias. Las distribuciones de probabilidad binomial, de Poisson e hipergeométrica son tratadas en el capítulo cinco. Por último, en el capítulo seis, se estudia la distribución de probabilidad normal.

This book describes and outlines the theoretical foundations of system simulation in teaching, and as a practical contribution to teaching-and-learning models. It presents various methodologies used in teaching, the goal being to solve real-life problems by creating simulation models and probability distributions that allow correlations to be drawn between a real model and a simulated model. Moreover, the book demonstrates the role of simulation in decision-making processes connected to teaching and learning.
