Abstract: An integrated modeling and analysis system (IMAS) receives documents containing information relating to an overall operations system from a number of integrated product teams (IPTs). The IMAS creates a model architecture of the overall system the information received from the participating IPTs. The IMAS automatically imports the information without any interaction from support personnel. A discrete event modeling (DES) application in communication with the IMAS creates a DES model based on the model architecture in the IMAS. The DES application runs a simulation on the model generating statistical data relating to the overall system for analysis. The statistical data generates output reports in a format compatible with the analysis tools of the user. The IMAS includes a customizable user interface which allows a stakeholder to link and control the modeling information received from all other participating IPTs. Prior simulations and results can be archived for later reference.

Abstract: A tool for performing project management analysis on a project. Also disclosed are a system and a method of analyzing the project. The tool includes a project manager implemented to receive project data relating to a schedule, a discrete event simulator to create a model of the project using the project data and to perform a simulation with the model, a database, and an interface to promote interaction between the project manager, the discrete event simulator, and the database.
