This paper investigates the applicability of the CSPI reference models in different factory planning scenarios. These scenarios are taken from real industrial use cases. The CSPI ...
This paper aims to demonstrate the potential for using the system dynamics computer simulation methodology to gain insight into the evolution of insurgencies. In particular, it ex...
We describe the spatial Agent-Based Computational Laboratory that we have developed to study the pandemic influenza risks of US cities. This research presented a series of interes...
Recently developed dual techniques allow us to evaluate a given sub-optimal dynamic portfolio policy by using the policy to construct an upper bound on the optimal value function....
In this paper we discuss verification and validation of simulation models. Four different approaches to deciding model validity are described; two different paradigms that relate ...
Coercion combines flexible points, semi-automated optimization and expert guided manual code modification for adapting simulations to meet new requirements. Coercion can improve s...
Surgical services require the coordination of many activities, including patient check-in and surgical preparation, surgery, and recovery after surgery. Each of these activities r...

Recent reports have established the need for change in the US health system. Building projects can play an important role in enabling change to support organizational objectives. ...
Planning construction projects typically makes use of the activity network based Critical Path Method (CPM), since it is very simple to use and reasonably versatile. Most other pl...
One of the most important gaps in road safety management practises is the lack of mature methods for estimating reliability. Road safety performance assessment systems have been d...
