These modules support the INSY 6450/5450 (Simulation-based Planning and Scheduling) course in the Industrial & Systems Engineering Department at Auburn. Several of these video modules relate directly to the class lectures — you can see the lectures from the Spring 2022 offering of the course at INSY 6450 Spring 2022 (the video module links are also there).
| Module | Description |
| VM01 – Simio and Simulation Refresher | A 7-video module (89:05 minutes total) that (hopefully) refreshes your memory of Simio and Simulation. In this module, we use a tandem queueing model and create several different Simio models illustrating several basing modeling concepts. |
| VM02 – Initial Job Shop Models | A 3-video module (99:08 minutes total) that focuses on job shops and developing a set of initial Simio modes. |
| VM03 – Scheduling-type Job Shop Models | A 3-video module (89:28 minutes total) that continues with the job shop models from VM02 and incorporates scheduling-related features and concepts. |
| VM04 – Task Sequences 1 | This 3-vdeio module (78:38 minutes total) shows three simple Task Sequence-based models. |
| VM05 – Materials and Inventories | This 3-video module (69:15 minutes total) describes the Simio Materials and Inventory elements and develops some related example models. |
| VM06 – Aubie Electronics | This 3-video module (83:07 minutes total) implements the baseline model for Aubie Electronics – a Case Study in the INSY 6450 course). |
| VM07 – Dispatching | This 2-vide module (43:19 minutes total) demonstrates how to use different dispatching rules with the Aubie Electronics model developed in VM06 and how to implement a GlobalSelectionRule that can be applied to multiple objects. |
| VM08 – Dashboards | This 4-video (44:48 minutes total) introduces Simio dashboard reports and implements three different dashboards for the Aubie Electronics model. |
