Chapter 7
Overview of DEEDS
7.1 Introduction
Chapter 5 details a discrete simulation model, including the concept of events, time management by using the primary events list (PEL), sampling from different probability distributions, and computations of the performance measure statistics. Chapter 6 stressed the peculiarities of the simulation experiment that bias performance measures, including autocorrelated observations, non-normality of output data, and the effect of the transient state. Sampling methods were proposed to reduce adverse effects ...
