Abstract
There are two key issues in assuring the accuracy of estimates of performance obtained from a simulation model. The first is the removal of any initialisation bias; the second is ensuring that enough output data are produced to obtain an accurate estimate of performance. Our aim is to produce an automated procedure for inclusion into commercial simulation software to address both of these issues. This paper describes the results of a 3-year project to produce such an analyser. Our Automated Simulation Output Analyser identifies the warm-up period, estimates the number of replications, and/or analyses output from a single run, with the aim of providing the user with accurate and precise measures of their chosen output statistics.
