Statistical analysis of simulation output data: the practical state of the art
One of the most important but neglected aspects of a simulation study is the proper design and analysis of simulation experiments. In this tutorial we give a stateof-the-art prese...

Simulation of scheduled ordering policies in distribution supply chains
In this paper we study a decentralized distribution supply chain with one supplier and many newsvendor-type retailers that face exogenous end-customer demands. Using total supply ...

Determining safety stocks in the presence of workload-dependent lead times
Most classical stochastic inventory models assume that replenishment lead times are independent of the amount of orders placed. This assumption is clearly problematic in capacitat...

Kernel estimation for quantile sensitivities
Quantiles, also known as value-at-risk in financial applications, are important measures of random performance. Quantile sensitivities provide information on how changes in the i...

Real-time prediction in a stochastic domain via similarity-based data-mining
This paper introduces an application and a methodology to predict future states of a process under real-time requirements. The real-time functionality is achieved by creating a Ba...

A trace-based visual inspection technique to detect errors in simulation models
Generation of traces from a simulation model and their analysis is a powerful and common mean to debug simulation models. In this paper, we define a measure of progress for simul...
