Abstract

QUEST is a 3D general purpose simulator that uses physical and logical relationships to rapidly model everything from complex manufacturing systems to business process re-engineering (BPR) opportunities. QUEST´s flexible, tightly integrated environment allows users to create a single interface where they can build, run, and analyze their systems using familiar terminology and customized output. This tutorial covers the main features of QUEST and its model building approach. An example model is built to demonstrate the discussed features. The integration of QUEST with other Deneb products is discussed
