Simulation models are often not used to their full potential in the decision-making process. The default simulation strategy of simple serial replication of fixed length runs mean...
—The use of wireless sensor networks is rapidly growing in various types of applications that benefit from spatially distributed data collection. Some of these applications, suc...
Heterogeneous embedded systems, where configurable or application specific hardware devices (FPGAs and ASICs) are used alongside traditional processors, are becoming more and more...
We present a discrete simulation model for software projects which explicitly takes a scheduling strategy as input. The model represents varying staff skill levels, component coup...
In this paper, we address the complex task of initializing an on-line simulation to a current system state collected from an operating physical system. The paper begins by discuss...
