By combining pattern search optimization with a fast estimated Gaussian Process model, we are able to perform global optimization more efficiently for response surfaces with multiple local minimums or even dramatic changes over the design space. Our approach extends pattern search for global optimization problems by incorporating the global and local information provided by an additive global and local Gaussian Process model. We further develop a global search method to identify multiple promising local regions for parallel implementation of local pattern search. We demonstrate our methods on a standard test problem.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122730263","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 our history, we began with representations of animals made from natural materials, and painted on cave walls. We also made regular marks on animal bones. While the modern accounting of these products is art (animal representations) and mathematics (bone marks), a more comprehensive understanding points to modeling in both cases. We saw or imagined things, and then we made models of our experience. One could say to be human is to model. Since the inception of modeling, we created areas of knowledge and have divided things into many groups. These groups have sub-groups to where our knowledge resembles a large house with its artificial partitions. And yet, modeling is still pervasive although it differs slightly in form among these subdivisions that we now refer to as disciplines. Since modeling is ubiquitous, it serves as a basis to reframe our activities in the information age. We claim that models are natural transformers from human experience to information; to create information for object X, create a model of X. Even simplistic activities such as grabbing a drink from the refrigerator or taking a walk translate into information management and processing, made evident through modeling.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"256 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122655845","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}

Thus a normalized airport is introduced, including a set of technologies/procedures, to investigate possibilities to gain runway capacity. The advantage of this approach is the comparability of different enhancements and understanding their effectiveness under different situations. So before establishing a new runway the current runway structure can be used more efficiently, leading to optimal solutions for individual constraints. This is shown for a set of operational enhancements like runway usage strategy or sequencing, studied under different traffic mixes as well as arrival-departure ratios. Hereby the main focus of this paper is set to dependent parallel runway configurations.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114432707","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 order to examine this period, I develop and use an agent based model (ABM) to explore possible sociopolitically relevant hypotheses for the gap between the demise of the late Longshan cultures and rise of the first state level society in East Asia. I test land use strategy making and collective action in response to drought and flooding scenarios, the two plausible environmental hazards at that time. The model results show cases of emergent behavior where an increase in social complexity could have been experienced if a catastrophic event occurred while the population was sufficiently prepared for a different catastrophe, suggesting a plausible lead for future research into determining the life of the time period.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114508747","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 ever-changing field, simulation provides an avenue for examining the traffic within new or existing networks. In simulating a network, characteristics and metrics of the topology may be derived without interfering with the existing framework or incurring an immediate hardware or software cost. The popular network simulator ns-3 is an effective tool for studying these network behaviors. This talk presents an overview of ns-3, discussing its design as a discrete event network simulator and its capabilities. Code snippets will be examined, demonstrating how to configure a network topology in simulation, generate packet traffic to traverse the simulated network, visualize the network behaviors, and glean metrics from the simulation. A subproject of ns-3, Direct Code Execution (DCE), is also described, demonstrating a mechanism for deploying real-world applications within the simulation.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"10 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122052411","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}

Models that predict refugee movements are few and far between, and constructing these models requires a substantial amount of manual effort while erupting refugee crises require a very rapid response. Here we present a vision towards establishing an automated framework, aimed to enable researchers to construct simulations of refugee movements more quickly and systematically. Our approach incorporates a diverse range of data sources, and uses the FabSim toolkit in conjunction with the Flee simulation code to quickly generate simulation workflows. In addition, we highlight a few key steps that we have already taken towards realizing this vision and discuss opportunities for wider applicability.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122165146","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}

As individuals may disagree or evidence be insufficient, causal links may be assigned a range rather than one value. When all links have range, the massive search space is a challenge to running simulations. In this paper, we presented, implemented, and evaluated a new approach to identify which ranges are important and simplify models accordingly. Our approach uses a factorial design of experiments, implemented using parallelism to offset its high computational cost. Our implementation (including our new Python library for FCM) is freely available on a third-party repository. Our evaluation on three previously published models shows that our approach can simplify almost half of a model under common settings, and runs within seconds on entry-level hardware for small FCMs. Further research is needed on simplifying the few FCMs having many links.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128354858","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}

This paper introduces a simulation-based business game for methods in planning logistics and production processes. Basic methods such as material requirement planning (MRP), Constant work in progress (Conwip), Kanban, reorder policies, dispatching rules, basic demand forecasting methods and master production schedule (MPS) are implemented in the game. Due to the generic environment additional methods can be implemented efficiently. The midterm planning concept sales and operations planning (S&OP) is implemented as well, where the gamers have to act as managers responsible for purchasing, production, sales and finance. Their target is to identify sales and production volumes for the next planning periods.","PeriodicalId":145780,"journal":{"name":"2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128635780","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}
