This paper presents a procedure for determining the number of simulation observations required to achieve a preassigned … confidence interval for means estimated by simulation. This procedure, which is simple to implement and efficient to use, is … compared with two other methods for determining the required sample size in a simulation run. The empirical results show that …

situations where simulation is used to evaluate the objective function. We present two versions of a new iterative method for … using transient or steady-state simulation, and we show how the other version can be applied to solve a special class of …

Many simulation experiments are concerned with the estimation of a ratio of two unknown means, the estimation of a …

There is still considerable doubt and even anxiety among simulation modelers as to what the methodologically correct … guidelines or procedures for validating simulation models should be. Epistemically, the approaches one finds in the simulation … simulation models. From the debate, we attempt to set out a perspective that frees the practioner to pursue a varied set of …
