We discuss SBatch, a simplified procedure for steady-state simulation analysis that is based on spaced batch means, incorporating many advantages of its predecessorsASAP3 and WAS...
This paper is motivated by a case study performed at a company that manufactures two main types of customized products. In an effort to significantly increase their throughput cap...
Emergent behaviors in simulations require explanation, so that valid behaviors can be separated from design or coding errors. We present a taxonomy, to be applied to emergent beha...
Agent-based modeling and simulation (ABMS) is a new approach to modeling systems comprised of autonomous, interacting agents. ABMS promises to have far-reaching effects on the way...
Over the 50 year history of discrete event simulation the growth in applications has been facilitated by some key advances in modeling that have simplified the process of building...
