Optimization Techniques for Computerized Simulation Models.

Abstract

This paper reports on the state of the art of available optimization techniques which can be associated with computerized simulation models. Specifically, the paper focuses on findings from a literature search and contacts with professionals involved in current research on those optimization techniques which can be applied to the identification of an optimum value for a single output performance measure when a family of input variables can assume either continuous or discrete values. In addition, the research considers a set of measures of effectiveness which can be used to assess the relative merits of the various optimization techniques encountered without providing a numerical ranking.
