The significance of simulation modeling at multiple levels, scales, and perspectives is well recognized. However, existing proposals for developing such models are often applicati...

Suppose one wishes to compare two closely related systems via stochastic simulation. Common random numbers (CRN) involves using the same streams of uniform random variates as inpu...
The TCP models in ns-2 have been validated and are widely used in network research. They are however not aimed at producing results consistent with a TCP implementation, they are ...
Cluster tools, which combine several single-wafer processing modules with wafer handling robots in a closed environment, have been increasingly used for most wafer fabrication pro...
In this paper, air combat simulation data is reconstructed into a dynamic Bayesian network. It gives a compact probabilistic model that describes the progress of air combat and al...
In our research, the manufacturing system emulation technology is proposed as one of the frontloading methods in the manufacturing system implementation phase. In this paper, the ...
We study an approximation for the zero-variance change of measure to estimate the probability of a rare event in a continuous-time Markov chain. The rare event occurs when the cha...

Control of infectious diseases is a key global health priority. This paper describes the role that simulation can play in evaluating policies for infectious disease control. We de...
Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) logistic handling system are widely adopted when high transportation capacity and quality of service are the most important characteristics to reach...

Emergent behaviors in simulations require explanation, so that valid behaviors can be separated from design or coding errors. We present a taxonomy, to be applied to emergent beha...
