  • Abstract
    This paper presents how a new teaching method in the way that a queuing theory and systems modeling or simulation course can be done, was evaluated by the teachers and the students that attended the course and answered a questionnaire. This course is based on the use of Unified Modeling Language (UML) as the mean to teach modeling of discrete event systems such as queues and networks and not on Mathematics that sometimes is too difficult for students to understand
