Integrating discrete-event simulation with statistical process control charts for transitions in a m - Winter Simulation Conference Proceedings, 1999

We present a model that integrates real-time process control charting with simulation modeling to illustrate the effects and benefits of SPC charts for quality improvement efforts. The integrated model is particularly significant in addressing transition issues arising from changes in the input material. A case study based on a medical manufacturing .industry process is used to illustrate the a...

Proceedings of the 1989 Winter . Simulation Conference

This paper provides an introduction to the Johnson translation system of probability distributions, and it describes methods for using the Johnson system to model input processes in simulation experiments. For situations in which little or no sample information is available, we have developed a visual interactive method to estimate bounded Johnson distributions subjectively; and we have impleme...

Sensitivity Analysis of Different Convection Schemes and Center Domains for Numerical Simulation of Winter Precipitation Over Iran

This paper qualifies the effect of different convection schemes and center-domains on the simulation of winter precipitation over Iran using RegCM3 numerical climate model. It is compressible, finite difference with hydrostatic equilibrium in sigma coordinate with a semi-implicit algorithm for reduction of horizontal diffusion. Iran experienced two dry and wet periods during winters of 1997 and...

ADAPTIVE ALGORITHMS VS. TIME WARP: AN ANALYTICAL COMPARISON - Winter Simulation Conference Proceedings, 1995

We assume familiarity with PDES (Fujimoto 1990), Adaptive synchronization algorithms have been proposed to improve upon conservative and optimistic algorithms. We present the first known analytical comparison of adaptive, o p t i ~ s t i c algorithms and Time Warp. We define a class of adaptive protocols, the asynchronous adaptive waiting protocols (AAWP’s) and identify several practical protoc...
