Efficient Simulation-Based Discrete Optimization
In many practical applications of simulation it is desirable to optimize the levels of integer or binary variables that are inputs for the simulation model. In these cases, the ob...

An Urban Terrain Abstraction to Support Decisionmaking Using Recursive Simulation
Recursive simulation is the technique of having simulated decisionmakers themselves use simulation to inform their decisionmaking. Issues of efficiency require that the recursive ...
