Allocation of simulation runs for simulation optimization
Simulation optimization (SO) is the process of finding the optimum design of a system whose performance measure(s) are estimated via simulation. We propose some ideas to improve o...

A simulation based optimization algorithm for slack reduction and workforce scheduling
In an assembly line with high labor proportion, the workforce planning and scheduling is a very complex problem. At the background of increasing labor costs, it is very important ...

Large deviations perspective on ordinal optimization of heavy-tailed systems
We consider the problem of selecting the best among several heavy-tailed systems using a large deviations perspective. In contrast to the light-tailed setting studied by Glynn and...

Scalable look-ahead linear regression trees
Most decision tree algorithms base their splitting decisions on a piecewise constant model. Often these splitting algorithms are extrapolated to trees with non-constant models at ...
