Simulation plays a vital role in identifying the best system design from among a set of competing designs. To improve simulation efficiency, ranking and selection techniques are o...

Simulated binary crossover (SBX) is a real-parameter recombination operator which is commonly used in the evolutionary algorithm (EA) literature. The operator involves a parameter...
We apply the method known as simulated annealing to the following problem in convex optimization: minimize a linear function over an arbitrary convex set, where the convex set is ...
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
Simulation modeling has the capability to represent complex real-world systems in details and therefore it is suitable to develop simulation models for generating detailed operati...
