Abstract :
Guidelines are given for conducting a simulation study. The guidelines are provided throughout the entire life cycle of a simulation study that is composed of ten processes, ten phases, and 13 credibility assessment stages. An overall evaluation scheme for assessing the acceptability and credibility of simulation results is proposed
