Title
Automating DES output analysis: how many replications to run
Abstract
This paper describes the selection and automation of a method for estimating how many replications should be run to achieve a required accuracy in the output. The motivation is to provide an easy to use method that can be incorporated into existing simulation software that enables practitioners to obtain results of a specified accuracy. The processes and decisions involved in selecting and setting up a method for automation are explained. The extensive test results are outlined, including results from applying the algorithm to a collection of artificial and real models.
