Active Nonlinear Tests (ANTs) of Complex Simulation Models

Miller, John H. - Department of Social and Decision Sciences, Carnegie … - 1996

Simulation models are becoming increasingly common in the analysis of critical scientific, policy, and management issues.Such models provide a way to analyze complex systems characterized by both large parameter spaces and nonlinear interactions. Unfortunately, these same characteristics make...
