摘要:A model-based decision support system (DSS) for operating and designing golf course systems is presented in this paper. The DSS is based on a simulation model that accurately represents the variability and interactions that impact pace of play on a golf course. Research shows the economic benefits of understanding the impact of policy and design on golf course play, specifically throughput (rounds played) and cycle time (round length). The DSS model was developed using MS-Excel and @RISK, a Monte Carlo simulation package. Using MS-Excel offers a much greater degree of transferability and usability than traditional standalone discrete- event simulation software.
