Simulation of continuous behavior using discrete tools: ORE conveyor transport
The modeling of systems mixing discrete and continuous behavior is a challenge for model builders. Sometimes, the continuous part is important, but small near the complex decision...

Implications of heavy tails on simulation-based ordinal optimization
We consider the problem of selecting the best system using simulation-based ordinal optimization. This problem has been studied mostly in the context of light-tailed distributions...

Single-stage multiple-comparison procedure for quantiles and other parameters
We present a single-stage multiple-comparison procedure for comparing parameters of independent systems, where the parameters are not necessarily means or steady-state means. We a...

Confidence interval estimation using linear combinations of overlapping variance estimators
We develop new confidence-interval estimators for the mean and variance parameter of a steady-state simulation output process. These confidence intervals are based on optimal li...
