A combined factorial experiment and heuristic search for simulation optimization

Simulation provides a means to determine the output performance measures for different sets of input parameters. While it is an effective tool for analyzing manufacturing systems, it relies entirely on the system designer to decide what changes are needed in the input parameters to achieve better re...
