Abstract: |
On-line analysis of output data
from discrete event stochastic simulation focuses almost entirely on
estimation of means. Most “variance estimation” research in simulation refers
to the estimation of the variance of the mean, to construct confidence
intervals for mean values. There has been little research on the estimation
of variance in simulation. We investigate three methods for point and
interval estimates of variance and discuss an implementation of the best
technique in an extended version of Akaroa2, a quantitative stochastic
simulation controller. |
