In Bayesian analysis of VAR-models, and especially in forecasting applications, the Minnesota prior of Litterman is frequently used. In many cases other prior distributions provide better forecasts and are preferable from a theoretical standpoint. This paper considers the numerical procedures...

In this paper we examine three methods for combining the variance reduction techniques of antithetic variates and control variates to estimate the mean response in a designed simulation experiment. In Combined Method I, we perform h independent pairs of simulation runs as follows---on the second...

This paper considers the passage of a parallel, uniform stream of particles through a parallel-sided, homogeneous slab of material capable of scattering and absorption. Particle histories are followed until the particle escapes from the near or far surface of the slab. Each particle carries a...

Stochastic simulation with antithetic variates is used to evaluate the bias of deterministic simulation in nonlinear econometric models. Application to the Klein-Goldberger model exemplifies the potentiality of the method.
