Other usual strategies (process-based, event-based or three phase approach) can be used. Depending on the problem to be modeled, one view will be more adapted and ease the implementation. In a system specification, the integration of the usual world-views should be clear. The concept of activity is shared by all the known conceptual frameworks and is a key aspect of simulation. In this paper we emphasize on what is new with activity-based modeling and simulation, and provide new definitions. In addition, we propose a multi-level life cycle adapted to activity aware simulations.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131350578","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}

A popular SBO method is the Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) approach. However, the performance of SBO methods critically depends on the quality of the guiding surrogate. In EGO the surrogate type is usually fixed to Kriging even though this may not be optimal for all problems. In this paper the authors propose to extend the well-known EGO method with an automatic surrogate model type selection framework that is able to dynamically select the best model type (including hybrid ensembles) depending on the data available so far. Hence, the expected improvement criterion will always be based on the best approximation available at each step of the optimization process. The approach is demonstrated on a structural optimization problem, i.e., reducing the stress on a truss-like structure. Results show that the proposed algorithm consequently finds better optimums than traditional kriging-based infill optimization.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130063140","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}

We iteratively applied a full 2k factorial design on the output of a stochastic, agent-based simulation to compare the effects of the hand hygiene compliance of healthcare workers and the nurse-to-patient ratio on the transmission of MRSA in a 20-bed ICU. The results suggest that increasing the nurse-to-patient ratio is more effective at levels below approximately 60% compliance of nurses. However, improving the hand washing compliance of nurses becomes the better strategy at higher baseline compliance levels. In addition, interaction effects between the two infection control measures limit the marginal benefit of improving both factors to high levels.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128927323","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}

We describe and contrast three tools developed in our laboratory that use this formalism to model these systems. Beyond evaluating system dynamics, we are interested in understanding how to control contagion processes using resources both endogenous and exogenous to the system being investigated to support public policy decision-making.

In comparison with common practice decision making, performed by human operators, the advantage of the symbiotic simulation-based approach is its ability to simulate how decisions will affect operations in different parts of the fab. Previous work has been concerned with the optimization of a single tool group. Here, we show that our approach can also be applied to control an entire fab which typically involves several hundred tools. Unlike other approaches, ours is not limited to a set of pre-defined decision making policies. Instead, the problem solver agent can directly schedule setup changes for an arbitrary number of tools. Experiments show that higher throughput can be achieved by using our approach as compared to common practice decision making.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122598263","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}

Using a questionnaire, each operator can specify his individual data and calculate the GHG emission for his production step. To derive the environmental flows required for the impact assessment, the tool applies simulation, which allows generating a full inventory on the basis of the limited input data the operator can provide. This is the basis for the interactive assessment of the GHG emissions of individual steps of biofuels pathways, without the need of conducting a time and resource-intensive Life Cycle Assessment study. In this paper, we focus on the simulation for the emissions caused by land use change since such emissions can play a dominating role in the GHG balance of a biofuel.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126905871","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}

The focus of this paper is on one such strategy -model reusability. The paper reports on an ongoing study that investigates the outpatient capacity and demand for specialist hematology services. The primary objective of this study is to test strategies for service consolidation. Yet another objective is to model the simulation with the granularity that would enable the model to reused in similar operations context.
