چکیده

A timeline in Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) is a sequence of events defined in a numerable subset of R+. Discrete-Event Modeling and Simulation try to reproduce the behaviour of real-world experiments. Nevertheless, measuring the experimental data for science and engineering (which is later used for modeling and simulation) introduces the need for uncertainty quantifications. In modeling of Continuous Systems, numerous tools have been defined to propagate uncertainty from the input to the output results. Nonetheless, these tools cannot be applied to the study of propagation of uncertainty in DES. In a previous study, we presented a method for propagating uncertainty for subset of DES models. Here, we introduce a generalization of the previous method that can be used for simulating any DES model. The method defines a new Abstract Simulator for the Discrete-Events System Specification (DEVS). This new Simulator provides the propagation of uncertainty from input to resulting trajectories.

Optimal design of supply chain network under uncertainty environment using hybrid analytical and simulation modeling approach

Models that aim to optimize the design of supply chain networks have gained more interest in the supply chain literature. Mixed-integer linear programming and discrete-event simulation are widely used for such an optimization problem. We present a hybrid approach to support decisions for supply chain network design using a combination of analytical and discrete-event simulation models. The prop...

Robust DEA under discrete uncertain data: a case study of Iranian electricity distribution companies

Crisp input and output data are fundamentally indispensable in traditional data envelopment analysis (DEA). However, the real-world problems often deal with imprecise or ambiguous data. In this paper, we propose a novel robust data envelopment model (RDEA) to investigate the efficiencies of decision-making units (DMU) when there are discrete uncertain input and output data. The method is based ...

Computer-based decision support for handling uncertainty in railway traffic and transportation

Railway transportation has great potential, but interdependencies in the railway traffic make trains very sensitive to disturbances, which can be difficult to handle. Using railway in an intermodal transport chain may complicate the interconnections with other modes if there is large uncertainty in the performance of the railway. A study based on interviews with several customers of the Swedish...

A multithreaded discrete-event driven mobile sensor network simulator

In this paper, we present a multithreaded discreteevent driven mobile sensor network simulator. The simulator supports node mobility, application and MAC layer protocols, radio range variations and mobile agents execution. The multithreaded approach can take advantage of the power of multi-core CPU efficiently. The schedule of the multi-threads increases the probability of the uncertainty in si...

Hybrid Simulation of CyberPhysical Energy Systems

Simulating cyber-physical energy systems such as data centers requires the characterization of the energy interactions between the computing units and the physical environment. Such interactions involve discrete events such as changes in operating modes of cooling units, and also transient processes such as heat flow. An event-based simulator fails to capture continuous transient effects while ...
