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...

User-friendly scheduling tools for large-scale simulation experiments
Planning and steering numerical experiments that involve many simulations are difficult tasks to automate. We describe how a simulation scheduling tool can help experimenters sub...

Stochastic kriging for simulation metamodeling
We extend the basic theory of kriging, as applied to the design and analysis of deterministic computer experiments, to the stochastic simulation setting. Our goal is to provide fl...
