Title
An introductory guide for hybrid simulation modelers on the primary simulation methods in industrial engineering identified through a systematic review of the literature.
Abstract
•It contains a bibliometric analysis on the three primary simulation methods in industrial engineering.•Details such as history, definition, and main aspects of three methods are provided.•Agent-based, discrete event, and system dynamics simulation are compared.•The work can be used as a quick reference by novice and expert hybrid simulation modelers.•Modelers must know the methods to select the one that best suits the project goal.
