Sandia National Laboratories is investing in projects that aim to develop computational modeling and simulation … applications that explore human cognitive and social phenomena. While some of these modeling and simulation projects are explicitly …-making. This raises the issue of how to evaluate computational modeling and simulation applications in both research and applied …

also allows to quantify their effect in the response/behavior/performance of the system. In such a framework the … performance function(s) of interest are also random and optimization of the system with respect to the design variables has to be … the performance with respect to the uncertain and design variables. The proposed algorithm is directly parallelizable and …
