This paper presents an implementation methodology appropriate for providing a broad range of proven, classical Operations Research methods and techniques to the simulation modeler...
In this paper we compare the average performance of Monte Carlo methods for global optimization with non-adaptive deterministic alternatives. We analyze the behavior of the algori...
This article discusses implementation issues for the LBATCH and ABATCH batch means procedures of Fishman and Yarberry (1997). Theses procedures dynamically increase the batch size...

The paper describes a simulation substrate that allows thinking agents to interact with a world. The world is simulated by standard discrete event simulation, but the timing of an...
