ARL-HRED

• FAMU-FSU Simulation Group
• Output Analysis Overview
• 7 Dec 2005

Who we are

• Dr. James Simpson, Principal Investigator
• Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering
• Florida State University
• Graduate Assistants
• Lisa Hughes
• Nicholas Done
• Wayne Wesley
• Michelle Zeisset

3
What we do
Improve IMPRINT as a decision-making tool

• Bring operations research expertise
• Not directly involved in product development so
  come from perspective of a potential user
• Military background adds realism

4
Our history with IMPRINT
5
Areas of concentration
6
Study approach

• Use small simple models
• Compare observed results to expected results
• Interpret results in context of a question a
  potential user may want to answer
• Validate and demonstrate suggested improvements
  using realistic models

7
Areas of concentration
Output Variable Assessment

• Multiple runs

• Useful metrics

Data Compilation

• Efficient data reporting
• Graphical and tabular reports

User Support

• GUI
• Analysis tools

User support output analysis

• Study objective
• Preliminary output assessment
• System analysis modified and tailored to the
  needs of user
• Summary performance
• Comparative model study
• Model characterization
• Sensitivity analysis/Model validation
• Model optimization or enhancement

20
Analysis guidelines
21
Example multiple factor study

• Factor values may vary depending upon
  characteristics such as manufacturer or material
  type.
• EXAMPLE A certain component is made by two
  different companies. Component A has a MOUBF of
  1 hour. Component B is a higher quality product
  and therefore has a higher MOUBF of 3 hours.
