Abstract

The purpose of this tutorial is to explain the steps required in conducting an entire simulation project. We first explain the twelve steps we consider necessary to accomplish a thorough simulation study. Then we describe three projects that the authors have completed. We discuss the systems, model assumptions, and input data for these projects. During the tutorial, we illustrate how the twelve steps pertain to the three simulation studies.
