Optimization of a Computer Simulation Response.

Abstract

Based on results to date, the statistical techniques of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) appear to be well-adapted to use in seeking an optimum simulation response. This report summarizes the optimum-seeking problem, reviews the framework of RSM, and describes an automated RSM computer program which has been developed as an alternative to manual applications of these statistical techniques. Program interface and data preparation are discussed. In addition, easily-followed examples are presented to illustrate program output and major aspects of the RSM optimum-seeking process. (Author)
