Package jline.api.sim


package jline.api.sim
Simulation output analysis.

This package turns a simulation sample path into an interval estimate. Its subject is the statistics of the output process, not the queueing model that produced it, so nothing here takes a NetworkStruct: the input is a sequence of observations such as successive waiting times exported from a simulation run.

The steady-state mean is already covered elsewhere: the LDES engine forms batch means and reports confidence-interval half-widths for every average metric, with MSER-5 warmup detection. What this package adds is the steady-state quantile, which is the quantity a tail service-level agreement is written against and for which no interval was previously available anywhere in LINE.

The two entry points are Sim_fquest for a single sample path and Sim_firquest for independent replications. Both rest on the standardized time series of the batched quantile process built by Sim_sts_quantile_areas, and on two hypothesis tests, Sim_vonneumann for randomness and Sim_shapirowilk for normality, which are general-purpose and usable on their own.
