Introduce the concept of thinking about simulation in business
terms. The two broad concepts are:
Business-to-business Supply Contracts. A supplier and a consumer firm have reach an agreement
to do business. This creates and a shipping opportunity.
The heart of the simulation is efficiently providing the
shipping networks to fulfil the contracts
Individual Travel. Individual wakeup each morning and decide where they
would like to go - a specific destination. This can be a
short commute with a city or long travel across the
world. This creates and opportunity to build passenger
transportation networks that will take people where they
want to go.
Note
Economic Activity generates more Economic Activity. As more people travel a city will grow. As a city increase in
size new factories are opened. This drives up jobs and
stimulates city growth.
