  • Computer-implemented systems and methods for executing stochastic discrete event simulations for design of experiments
    Patent number: 8306788
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods for executing stochastic discrete event simulations for a stochastic model through a design of experiments approach. In the design of experiments approach, virtual mappings are generated between model component parameters in a model and the factors/responses contained in the design of experiments. The virtual mappings are used during execution of the model to generate values for the response contained in the design of experiments.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 8, 2009
    Date of Patent: November 6, 2012
    Assignee: SAS Institute Inc.
    Inventors: Hong Chen, Emily Lada, Phillip C. Meanor
  • Computer-implemented systems and methods for augmenting stochastic event simulations for design of experiments
    Patent number: 8065132
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods for executing stochastic discrete event simulations for a stochastic model through a design of experiments approach. Streams of random numbers are associated with stochastic model components that are sources of random variation within the stochastic model. A system is configured to manage the streams while the stochastic model is being executed during a simulation.

  • Computer-implemented system and method for handling linked data views
    Patent number: 7068267
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for use in a data visualization system having a data model. The data model contains data observations. A first view and a second view are used to display at least a portion of the data observations contained in the data model. Conditional data that is associated with the second view specifies how the second view's display is modified based upon a selection of a data observation within the first view.
