Simulation-Based Optimization Using Simulated Annealing With Confidence Interval
This paper develops a variant of Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm for solving discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function is stochastic and can be eva...

On Using Monte Carlo Methods for Scheduling
Monte Carlo techniques have long been used (since Buffon's experiment to approximate the value of by tossing a needle onto striped paper) to analyze phenomena which, due to ...

Optimization by Simulation Metamodelling Methods
We consider how simulation metamodels can be used to optimize the performance of a system that depends on a number of factors. We focus on the situation where the number of simula...
