We consider how simulation metamodels can be used to optimize the performance of a system that depends on a number of factors. We focus on the situation where the number of simula...
We present a technique for analyzing a simulation metamodel that has been constructed using a variancestabilizing transformation. To compute a valid confidence interval for the ex...

Optimum implementation of non-conventional wells allows us to increase considerably hydrocarbon recovery. By considering the high drilling cost and the potential improvement in we...
Simulation optimization (SO) is the process of finding the optimum design of a system whose performance measure(s) are estimated via simulation. We propose some ideas to improve o...
We propose "low cost response surface methods" (LCRSM) that typically require half the experimental runs of standard response surface methods based on central composite ...
