Much of the rare-event simulation literature is concerned with the development of asymptotically optimal algorithms. Because of the difficulties associated with applying these id...
Simulation languages and the GUIs supporting them may be excellent tools for creating simulation codes, but are not necessarily the best tools to use for creating descriptions of ...

Copulas are used in finance and insurance for modeling stochastic dependency. They comprehend the entire dependence structure, not only the correlations. Here they are estimated ...
We discuss efficient Monte Carlo (MC) methods for the estimation of convex risk measures within the portfolio credit risk model CreditMetrics. Our focus lies on the Utilitybased ...
One of the more complex maneuvers a hospital system can perform is moving an entire patient population from an old facility to a replacement facility. All patients must be transpo...
