Estimating tail probabilities of heavy tailed distributions with asymptotically zero relative error
Efficient estimation of tail probabilities involving heavy tailed random variables is amongst the most challenging problems in Monte-Carlo simulation. In the last few years, appli...

Efficient simulation for tail probabilities of Gaussian random fields
We are interested in computing tail probabilities for the maxima of Gaussian random fields. In this paper, we discuss two special cases: random fields defined over a finite number...

Simulating GI/GI/1 queues and insurance risk processes with subexponential distributions
This paper deals with estimating small tail probabilities of the steady-state waiting time in a GI/GI/1 queue with heavy-tailed (subexponential) service times. The problem of esti...
