Abstract :
In this tutorial we will introduce a selection of the basic output analysis techniques needed to complete a successful simulation project. The techniques will be introduced with examples to give practical advice on their use. We will discuss how to choose an appropriate warm-up duration and number of replications, as well as describing the presentation and analysis of performance measures of interest.
