Hospital information systems modeling and simulation: the right method for the right objective.
The aim of this paper is to present an "instruction for use" on the information systems modeling and simulation methods in the case of a Hospital Information System. Firstly, a right modeling is defined as the right modeling method for the right objective and secondly, it exposes a short state of the art on these methods, the objectives of modeling and simulation for the Information System of a hospital and the application of the right method for the right objective. Finally it insists on the concrete aspects of how to realize modeling and simulation and the advantages of such an approach.
