Abstract :
Succeeding with a technology as powerful as simulation involves much more than the technical aspects you may have been trained in. The parts of a simulation study that are outside the realm of modeling and analysis can make or break the project. We explore the most common pitfalls in performing simulation studies and identify approaches for avoiding these problems.
