In this paper we describe a methodology that includes the complementary use of simulated annealing and response surface methodology (RSM). The methodology was developed for analys...
This paper describes an algorithm for approximating missing data in air traffic routes thereby allowing the lengths of different routes to be compared for our simulation analyses....
We discuss a modification of the process world view, a graphical modeling representation language for the modified process world view called Control Flow Graphs (CFGs), an extensi...
This paper discusses validation and verification of simulation models. The different approaches to deciding model validity are presented; how model validation and verification rel...
In the 21st century, the Biotechnology industry has the potential to inspire a number of management tools and theories, just as the Automobile industry did in the 20th century. Th...
This research investigates Speech Acts performed in the war film Platoon. It aims at finding details about the types of speech acts, their form and how they are expressed by the i...
In standard optimistic parallel event simulation, no restriction exists on the maximum lag in simulation time between the fastest and slowest logical processes (LPs). Overoptimist...
In this research, we investigate how well Weibull, Gamma, and special bimodal distribution are suited as an alternative to the exponential distribution approach in the stochastic ...
In this paper, we consider the relationship between risksensitivity and information. Product estimators are introduced as a generalization of Maximum A Posteriori Probability (MAP...
