In time-parallel simulation, the simulation time axis is decomposed into a number of slices which are assigned to parallel processes for concurrent simulation. Although a promisin...
Agent-based modeling is a framework that allows the analysis of distributed command-by-influence using mission-type orders known for over a century as Auftragstaktik in German Arm...
Forecasting is of prime importance for accuracy in decision making. For data sets containing high autocorrelations, failure to account for temporal dependence will result in poor ...
This paper presents a method for allocating production capacity among flexible and dedicated machines based on uncertain demand forecasts of products in a production portfolio. Gi...
This paper presents VITASCOPE, a general-purpose, userextensible 3D visualization system for animating processes that are modeled using Discrete-Event Simulation tools. VITASCOPE ...
This paper presents research that led to the design and implementation of practical 3D animation methods to visualize multiply-articulated construction equipment in 3D animations ...
This paper explores an approach to global, stochastic, simulation optimization which combines stochastic approximation (SA) with simulated annealing (SAN). SA directs a search of ...
In the analysis of a manufacturing system, the analyst is often interested in the change in mean cycle time as a function of different throughput (start rate) levels. Since the va...
