The proposed research seeks to develop new methods for                  simultaneously applying variance reduction techniques, for precise point        estimation, and output analysis methods, for valid interval estimation,         in stochastic simulation experiments.  Three tasks will be performed:           examination of combined variance reduction techniques and output                analysis methods for steady-state simulation experiments, the extension         of existing variance reduction techniques to multivariate parameter             estimation in terminating simulations, and the development of a                 framework for selecting and parameterizing variance reduction techniques        in experiments performed sequentially, such as optimization via                 simulation. Successful completion of these tasks will lead to wider             application of effective variance reduction and appropriate output              analysis.
