Terminating Simulations
For this reason, intermediate statistics should be accumulated when simulating terminating systems.
For a simulation replication n times, and with m intermediate observations in each simulation, let
xij= jth observation on the ith replication,
where i = 1, 2, ..., n; j = 1, 2, ..., m
and let yi= some overall performance measure during the ith replication.
Then , for j=1,2,…,m
