In this paper, we discuss a distributed implementation of the standard clock approach to simulation on networks of heterogeneous UNIX workstations. The implementation follows the client/server model, each server process that runs on a separate workstation, simulates a certain number of variants. The goal of the research is to determine the reduction in the total simulation time as more workstations are added to the run. The simulation completion time, which is considered as the performance measure, depends on the assignment of variants to workstations. We use two different load balancing techniques: (1) a static load balancing that is based on estimated cost of each variant and (2) a dynamic load balancing that migrates variants between workstations, based on their estimated performance during the simulation process. Simple queuing models are used to study the performance. Numerical results obtained from real-time simulations on a network of up to seven workstations are used to investigate the speedup and the efficiency of both the implementation and the load balancing techniques.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101162,"journal":{"name":"Simulation Practice and Theory","volume":"8 3","pages":"Pages 177-199"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0928-4869(00)00022-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89968512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we explore the use of Bayesian statistics as an alternative. This makes it possible to incorporate prior information into the analysis of simulation results in a formal and rigorous manner, through the use of prior distributions. The Bayesian approach will typically yield improved analyses, by better taking into account what is actually known and what is not known about the system to be simulated (assuming that the prior distributions themselves adequately represent this knowledge). We briefly review Bayesian methods for readers who are not familiar with this type of analysis and suggest ways in which these methods can be applied to simulation. Specifically, we explore the use of Bayesian statistics for verification and validation of simulation models and for simulation output analysis, in both cases using priors on the performance measures of interest. We then study the use of prior distributions on the input parameters to the simulation, as a way to quantify the effects of input uncertainties on both the mean and the uncertainty of the performance measures of interest, and discuss Bayesian and related methods for choosing input distributions. Finally, we briefly consider the use of a joint prior on both the input parameters and the resulting performance measures. Bayesian methods are particularly appropriate for use in practice when simulations are costly, or when input uncertainties are large. Our work provides guidance on the use of Bayesian methods for simulation analysis. We hope that it will stimulate readers to learn more about this important subject, and also encourage further research in this area.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101162,"journal":{"name":"Simulation Practice and Theory","volume":"8 3","pages":"Pages 253-280"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0928-4869(00)00025-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75800696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, the clinical outcome is not very predictable. In this study a computational model is presented that can predict the neural response to an arbitrary cochlear implant. It first computes the potential distribution set up in a three-dimensional, spiralling volume conduction model of the auditory part of the inner ear (cochlea) and then applies a nerve fibre model to construct input/output curves and excitation profiles of the auditory nerve. As an initial validation the results are compared with experimentally induced electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses. In the light of the favourable results, we conclude that the model can serve as a tool for designing future cochlear implants. In combination with electrophysiological measurements in the individual patient it is applicable as an implant fitting tool.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101162,"journal":{"name":"Simulation Practice and Theory","volume":"8 1","pages":"Pages 75-97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0928-4869(00)00008-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90018501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
