The estimation of the impact on performance in business process (BP) by introducing an information system (IS) is an important practical problem in investment appraisal. This pape...
The composition and reuse of simulation model is currently a hot research topic in the area of complex system modeling and simulation. A unified simulation model representation is...

Stimulated by the success of management innovation in the manufacturing industry – culminating in lean production, many homebuilders attempt to model the construction process on...
This paper describes two experiments exploring the potential of the Kriging methodology for constrained simulation optimization. Both experiments study an (s, S) inventory system ...

In this paper the relation of high-level Petri-nets (hlpn) and linear algebra is outlined. On the basis of this relation the theory of the dual spaces can be brought in to a new c...
Planning, scheduling and effective management of contingencies are crucial for the successful management of construction projects. In this paper we explore a mathematical represen...
I will review the role that Monte Carlo methods play in the physical sciences. They are very widely used for a number of reasons: they permit the rapid and faithful transformation...
We study the one-dimensional root finding problem for increasing convex functions. We give gradient-free algorithms for both exact and inexact (stochastic) function evaluations. ...
Disasters can cause extraordinary service demand by the public, while concurrently causing outages that reduce network capacity to serve the surging demand. It is imperative that ...
