Design and analysis of simulation experiments

We define simulation as the process of designing a model of a real system and conducting experiments with this model for the purpose either of understanding the behavior of the system or of evaluating various strategies for the operation of the system [25]. It then follows that we must concern ourselves with the strategic and tactical planning of how to design and run an experiment that will yield the desired information.
