Simulation Methodology

This is a tutorial course that focuses on variance reduction rationale,techniques and methodologies of discrete-event simulation. It also discussesrecent development on rare event simulation and exact sampling with applications to statistics, operations research, queueing theory, telecommunication and insurance risk.
