    • Discrete event simulation
    • Continuous simulation

Difference between continuous and discrete-event simulations:

Continuous simulationDiscrete-event simulation
Continuous simulation represents time as continuous variables.Discrete-event simulation represents time as discrete-event.
It refers to a model in which the changes of the system will be continuous and the response over time is defined using a set of differential equations...
