We consider a new simulation-based optimization method called the Nested Partitions (NP) method. This method generates a Markov chain and solving the optimization problem is equiv...
A model is proposed which identifies factors associated with the adoption of discrete event simulation and places them within an explanatory framework. The model proposes four mai...
Abstract. More real systems have many components and their simulation requires significant execution times. The practical needs have conducted to distributed simulation rather tha...
This paper describes the design and performance of IDES, a Java-based distributed simulation engine being developed at Sandia National Laboratories. The feasability of using Java ...
