TL;DR: The feasibility of building full guideline models for NICE guidelines is tested and if, and how, such models can be used as a basis for cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opportunistic Communication and Human Mobility
TL;DR: The results suggest that it is important to capture the scenario and space in which mobility occurs since these may affect performance significantly and it is not very sensitive to accurate estimation of the probability distributions of mobility parameters such as speed and arrival process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Workforce cross-training decisions in field service systems with two job types
TL;DR: A model is studied where the objective is to minimize the sum of the average service costs and the customer delay costs per unit time and the impact of various system parameters such as the number of servers, server utilization, and server efficiency on the optimal workforce mix.

Effective simulation model reuse: a case study for AMHS modeling
TL;DR: Investigation has indicated that a special purpose reusable generic model, designed to address the set of issues faced by a specific commercial entity, is efficient and necessary for fast model turnaround and reduces model building time as well as increasing simulation accuracy.
