- Powerful for dynamic, probabilistic simulation of complex systems, supports hierarchical modeling, widely used for risk and reliability assessment in engineering and environmental science, Excel interface facilitates data input and output.
- Commercial software (can be expensive), steep learning curve for building complex dynamic models, Excel interface is for data exchange and control, not for building the core GoldSim model.
Best for:
- Engineers, scientists, and analysts modeling complex, dynamic, and uncertain systems in fields like environmental management, water resources, mining, and risk assessment, using Excel for data I/O with GoldSim.
