Tiivistelmä	Policy Scenario Queueing Simulation applies queueing theory and discrete-event simulation to evaluate two or more competing service or resource-allocation policies under realistic demand and capacity conditions. By holding the system structure constant and varying only the policy rules, analysts can directly compare throughput, waiting times, utilization, and equity outcomes before committing to real-world implementation.	Stochastic Queueing Simulation models waiting-line systems where arrival and service processes follow probability distributions rather than fixed rates. By simulating thousands of random events, it estimates performance measures — mean waiting time, queue length, server utilization — under realistic uncertainty, making it the standard tool for designing and evaluating service systems from hospitals to call centers.
