Optimization with Confidence Intervals

Simulation models are stochastic in nature, which means that every time you run a simulation model you will get different results, if you use different seeds. In order to communicate these varied results to the stakeholders, you need to use a statistical tool called confidence intervals. In simple terms, this tool will tell you how confident you […]
