- W978383906 abstract "It is difficult to analyze and determine strategies to control complex systems due to their inherent complexity. The complex interactions among elements make it difficult to develop and test decision makers' intuition of how the system will behave under different policies. Computer models are often used to simulate the system and to observe both direct and indirect effects of alternative interventions. However, many decision makers are unwilling to concede complete control to a computer model because of the abstractions in the model, and the other factors that cannot be modeled, such as physical, human, social and organizational relationship constraints. This dissertation develops an agent-based simulation (ABS) model to analyze a complex system and its policy alternatives, and contributes a best-subset selection (BSS) procedure that provides a group of good performing alternatives to which decision makers can then apply their subject and context knowledge in making a final decision for implementation.As a specific example of a complex system, a mass casualty incident (MCI) response system was simulated using an ABS model consisting of three interrelated sub-systems. The model was then validated by a series of sensitivity analysis experiments. The model provides a good test bed to evaluate various evacuation policies. In order to find the best policy that minimizes the overall mortality, two ranking-and-selection (R&S) procedures from the literature (Rinott (1978) and Kim and Nelson (2001)) were implemented and compared. Then a new best-subset selection (BSS) procedure was developed to efficiently select a statistically guaranteed best-subset containing all alternatives that are close enough to the best one for a pre-specified probability. Extensive numerical experiments were organized to prove the effectiveness and demonstrate the performance of the BSS procedure. The BSS procedure was then implemented in conjunction with the MCI ABS model to select the best evacuation policies. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our agent-based optimization methodology for complex system policy evaluation and selection." @default.
