Abstract Introduction Due to the menacing increase in the number of vehicles on a daily basis, abating road congestion is becoming a key challenge these years. To cope-up with the prevailing traffic scenarios and to meet the ever-increasing demand for traffic, the urban transportation system needs effective solution m…

This paper considers a stochastic inventory model in which supply availability is subject to random fluctuations that may arise due to machine breakdowns, strikes, embargoes, etc. It is assumed that the inventory manager deals with two suppliers who may be either individually ON (available) or OFF (unavailable). Each…

In a parallel discrete-event simulation (PDES) scheme, tasks are distributed among processing elements (PEs) whose progress is controlled by a synchronization scheme. For lattice systems with short-range interactions, the progress of the conservative PDES scheme is governed by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation from the…

A critical decision companies are faced with on a regular basis is the ordering of products and/or raw materials. Poor decisions can lead to excess inventories that are costly or to insufficient inventory that cannot meet its customer demands. These decisions may be as simple as "how much to order" or "how often to or…

A hierarchical game theoretic decision making framework is exploited to model driver decisions and interactions in traffic. In this paper, we apply this framework to develop a simulator to evaluate various existing autonomous driving algorithms. Specifically, two algorithms, based on Stackelberg policies and decision…

This paper describes a discrete event simulation model of the post-earthquake restoration process for electric power systems. The model explicitly represents the real-life restoration process, enabling development of geographically disaggregated, quantitative restoration curves with uncertainty bounds, a dynamic map s…

Abstract Sensitivity analysis of system dynamics models is essentially about sensitivity of patterns of output behaviors to inputs, since system dynamics modeling is behavior pattern oriented. In this study, a regression‐based procedure for pattern sensitivity analysis is developed, by defining behavior pattern measur…

It is very important to report some effect size measures that will show if the observed differences among the groups are also of practical significance along with statistical significance while reporting statistical analysis results. Performances of four commonly used effect size measures (Eta-Squared, Partial Eta Squ…
