Abstract :
There is a growing necessity to embed a simulator within a decision support system. For a complex system, there is usually the need both to utilize a commercial package to perform the simulations and to read data from an in-house database. The DSS is programmed in different software packages which interact via the user-friendly, readily available MSExcel. A situation in which a company is faced with a sequencing problem is presented
