  Abstract

In this paper we study the quality of sequential coverage analysis under a scenario of distributed stochastic simulation known as MRIP (Multiple Replications In Parallel) in terms of the confidence intervals of coverage and the speedup. The estimator based on the F-distribution was applied to the sequential coverage analysis of steady-state means, in simulations of the M/M/1/∞, M/D/1/∞, and M/H2/1/∞E queueing systems on a single processor and multiple processors. By using multiple processors under the MRIP scenario, the time for collecting many replications needed in sequential coverage analysis is reduced. One can also easily collect more replications by executing it in distributed computers or clusters linked by a local area network.
