Traditionally, static methods have been applied to analyze the environmental impact during a product's life cycle; however, they are unable to incorporate dynamic aspects of real world operations. This paper discusses a method using Discrete Event Simulation (DES) to analyze production systems and simultaneously enable labeling of products' environmental footprint. The method steps include data management, determination of environmental footprint, and communication of the results. The method is developed during a case study of a job-shop-production facility. To evaluate the DES method, the DES results were compared with the results of a Simplified Life Cycle Assessment (SLCA) conducted on the same production system. The case study demonstrates the possibility for the DES method to determine the variation between products in terms of the environmental footprint and highlights some of the difficulties involved.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"46 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":"129591514","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 co-evolution of epidemic dynamics and human behavior requires the simulation systems to compute complex real-world interventions. Calls from public health policy makers for executing such simulation studies during a pandemic typically have tight deadlines. It is highly desirable to implement new interventions in existing high-performance epidemic simulations, with minimum development effort and limited performance degradation. Indemics is a database supported high-performance epidemic simulation framework, which enables complex intervention studies to be designed and executed within a short time. Unlike earlier approaches that implement new interventions inside the simulation engine, Indemics utilizes DBMS and reduces implementation effort from weeks to days. In this paper, we propose a methodology for modeling and predicting performance of Indemics-supported intervention studies. We demonstrate our methodology with experimental results.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"61 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":"129639818","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 variance estimators are based on the method of nonoverlapping batch means and on the method of standardized time series applied to overlapping batch means. Under certain conditions, the resulting expressions are used to minimize the MSE with respect to the batch size, where the optimal batch size is expressed as a function of the simulation run length and certain moment properties of the output process. The ultimate objective is to exploit these results to construct new variance estimators with improved accuracy and efficiency, and to provide useful guidelines on setting the batch size in practice.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"36 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":"127088824","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 the design, implementation, capabilities, and features of InterSim; e.g., it enables users to quickly produce simulations of ABS in many application domains.

The Department of Defense (DoD) has a growing need for an educated M&S workforce. This need includes users, developers, managers and executive-level personnel, which can effectively apply M&S to DoD requirements. While several universities offer academic M&S degree programs, the time and expense of earning these degrees often limit the number of people that go through these programs. Professional education is an alternative for gaining M&S skills and knowledge, and courses are offered by a range of university and commercial groups. The observations in this paper begin to outline both the need and available options for M&S professional education. This collection of position papers begins a conversation on the DoD's need for professional M&S education and how the M&S Body of Knowledge might fit within that strategy. These position papers are contributed in preparation of a panel discussion and edited for the supporting proceedings.","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":"130134524","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}

With more than 80 percent of the energy consumed by buildings occurring during their operational phase, most policies and programs over the last decade have focused on the design requirements for new and renovated buildings to ensure reductions in energy use during building operation. These policies are primarily focusing on the technical aspect of building systems, ignoring the role played by occupants' behavior, and most importantly how to influence this behavior to reduce energy consumption. Various approaches have proven to be effective in inducing behavioral changes such as energy conservation campaigns, financial incentives, feedback techniques, and others. This paper presents an agent-based approach to modeling these methods, simulating their impact on occupants' behavior, and predicting their effect on building energy use and costs.","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":"131063552","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}

Shortage is allowed and all the unsatisfied demands are backlogged. Moreover, replenishment is one for one. Our objective is to minimize the long-run total expected cost of the system. Firstly, we have developed the mathematical model with deterministic lead time. Since the stochastic lead time makes the model complex especially when lead time has complicated probability distribution and it is difficult to prove convexity of the objective function, we have applied simulation modeling approach. The simulation model has no limitation on lead time or any other parameters. The simulation model is validated by comparing its outputs and analytical model's results for the deterministic lead time case. Furthermore, we use optimizer module of the applied software to find near optimal solutions for a number of examples with stochastic lead time.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"26 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":"126936731","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}

There is a lack of systematic methodology for calibrating urban rail simulation models. Based on a simulator developed for urban rail operations and control, the paper demonstrates a methodology of calibrating model parameters, and specifically, fine-tuning some of the simulation inputs. The calibration process is modeled as a multi-variate optimization problem and solved by the Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA) algorithm. A case study of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) Red Line shows that the methodology improves the simulation model dramatically in terms of replicating the track block runtimes. At the same time, it upgrades the station specific dwell time parameters and enhances a-priori boarding rates at stations fairly effectively.","PeriodicalId":246140,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2011 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"38 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":"131951956","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}
