A model for contact center analysis and simulation
In this paper we depart from a set of simple assumptions regarding the behavior of a pool of customers associated with an enterprise’s contact center. We assume that the pool of...

Predicting cluster tool behavior with slow down factors
Cluster tools are representatives of a special kind of tool where process times of jobs depend on the combination in which they are processed together on the tool and hence, depen...

Low bias integrated path estimators
We consider the problem of estimating the time-average variance constant for a stationary process. A previous paper described an approach based on multiple integrations of the sim...

Path-wise estimators and cross-path regressions: an application to evaluating portfolio strategies
Recently developed dual techniques allow us to evaluate a given sub-optimal dynamic portfolio policy by using the policy to construct an upper bound on the optimal value function....
