Abstract:

The implementation of computer experiments is a competitive advantage in business environments where fast and cost effective product development is critical. In many industrial applications computer experiments are replacing physical experiments because the physical creation and testing of prototypes is very prohibitive in terms of time and cost. Computer experiments typically involve complex systems with numerous input variables. A primary goal of computer experiments is to develop a metamodel - a good approximation to the original complex compter model - which provides an easier and faster approach to sensitivity analysis and optimization. This talk will cover some real industy applications as well as design and modeling challenges that one encounters.


Authors who are presenting talks have a * after their name.
