Disadvantages of Simulation
- Accurate simulation model development requires extensive resources.
- The simulation results are only as good as the model and as such are still only estimates / projected outcomes.
- Optimisation can only be performed involving a few alternatives as the model is usually developed using a limited number of variables.
- Simulations cost a lot of money to build and are very expensive to make

Famous quotes containing the words disadvantages of and/or simulation:
“Wine makes a man better pleased with himself. I do not say that it makes him more pleasing to others.... This is one of the disadvantages of wine, it makes a man mistake words for thoughts.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Life, as the most ancient of all metaphors insists, is a journey; and the travel book, in its deceptive simulation of the journey’s fits and starts, rehearses life’s own fragmentation. More even than the novel, it embraces the contingency of things.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
