Simulation optimization has received considerable attention from both simulation researchers and practitioners. In this tutorial we present a broad introduction to simulation optimization and the many techniques that have been suggested to solve simulation optimization problems. Both continuous and discrete problems are discussed, but an emphasis is placed on discrete problems and practical methods for addressing such problems.
