Abstract

This paper gives an overview of multivariate statistical techniques that can be useful for analyzing discrete-event simulation output, and describes some of the latest directions in research on multivariate output analysis. A general discussion is given of constructing joint confidence regions on the mean vector of multivariate output from independent replications of terminating models. The multivariate batch means method of simultaneous estimation of means from one long run of steady-state simulation models is described. References are also given for autoregressive, spectral analysis and regenerative methods of inference, as well as variance-reduction and sequential techniques.
