USING SIMULATION FOR ROBUST SYSTEM-DESIGN Academic Article

abstract

• This paper describes an approach to design systems using computer simulation experiments. The distinguishing feature of the approach is to develop a strategy that considers system robustness as a major design criterion. Motivated by Taguchi's methods to design robust products, our research investigates the utility of this approach to design robust systems. Explicit consideration of robustness upfront in the design process represents a major paradigm shift for system design methodologies. Consequently, the results of our research have the poten tial to significantly impact future simulation- based system design methods.
