—Modern micro-architecture simulators are many orders of magnitude slower than the hardware they simulate. The use of multiprocessor architectures for supporting future mobile an...
Efficiency is a big concern when using simulation to estimate rare-event probabilities, since a huge number of simulation replications may be needed in order to obtain a reasonabl...
Confidence intervals for the median of estimators or other quantiles were proposed as a substitute for usual confidence intervals in terminating and steady-state simulation. This ...
We summarize the results of an experimental performance evaluation of using an empirical histogram to approximate the steady-state distribution of the underlying stochastic proces...
Importance Sampling is a potentially powerful variance reduction technique to speed up simulations where the objective depends on the occurrence of rare events. However, it is cru...
