ExpertFit®

Distribution-fitting software for any simulation product including Witness, Simul8 and FlexSim

How to build more valid simulation models and to make more effective decisions

  • Automatic and accurate selection of the best probability distribution for your data in seconds.
    • Decides whether the selected distribution is actually good enough to use in a simulation model, or whether an empirical distribution should be used instead
  • ExpertFit® has the most comprehensive set of features
    • 40 different distributions even if they are not in your simulation software (click for list).
    • Creates the proper format for direct input to 27 simulation products including WITNESS, SIMUL8 and Flexsim (click for list)
    • Allows multiple distributions on a plot
    • Batch-mode capability for analyzing a large number of data sets
    • Provides more than 30 graphical plots of your data
    • Additional features include descriptive statistics, parameter estimates, goodness of fit tests, graphical analysis, random variate generation
    • Identifies a distribution in the absence of data including random equipment breakdowns based upon a databank of thousands of breakdown distribution models
    • Product sponsored Accenture, NIST, and Oak Ridge National Lab.
  • ExpertFit® can be configured to fit your particular needs
    • There are two modes of operation that allow you to configure ExpertFit® to your background and to your application
    • Standard Mode contains features sufficient for 95 percent of all analyses and focuses the user on those features that are really important
    • Advanced Mode contains numerous additional features for the sophisticated user
    • A user can easily switch from one mode to another at any time during an analysis
  • ExpertFit® is the most technically correct software
    • Distribution-fitting methodology is based on 24 years of research and on experimentation with 35,000 data sets
    • ExpertFit® was developed by Dr. Averill M. Law, who is widely recognized as one of the world's foremost authorities on simulation and distribution fitting
  • ExpertFit® has superb documentation and technical support
    • Provides 450 pages of context-sensitive help for all menus and all results tables/graphs
    • Online feature index and tutorials on goodness-of-fit tests, available distributions, etc.
    • User's Guide includes eight comlete examples
    • Technical support by experienced simulationists.

ExpertFit® available for WITNESS, SIMUL8, FlexSim, Arena, AutoMod and ProModel and all other simulation products

Training

Each licence purchased from Saker Solutions comes with a half day training workshop to help you get the most out of Expertfit® in addition ExpertFit® is an integral part of the simulation courses run by Saker Solutions.

Fundementals of simulation modelling

2 day course covering the fundamentals of running a good simulation project. Areas covered include, data collection, model design, project validation, experimentation and model analysis.
