Review antithetic method¶
We will split the outputs into pairs. We will still generate the outcomes from the same distribution. However, we will find a strategy to have two outcomes negatively correlated.

Applying the antithetic method to discrete event system simulation.¶
Discrete event system is nothing but feeding samples from different distributions into a “system” to get the output.
In the basic single queueing system, we have two sets of samples to feed into the system
(1) the inter-arrival time for each customer
(2) the service time for each customer
If the samples are generated using the inverse transform method or from a normal distribution, it will be very easy to generate the original parts and the anththetic parts using the technique we discussed in class.
We the need to think about whether feeding the original part and the anthetic part will lead to negative correlation in the actual system output.
Let’s assume that we are interested in estimating the average time consumers stay in the system.
(1) larger inter-arrival time v.s. smaller inter-arrival time
Having larger inter-arrival time means consumers in this round of simulation are arrival at a lower pacer. In this case, we might be expecting fewer people to line up, which will lead to lower average time in the system.
If the inter-arrival times fed into the system are generally large, we should be expecting the antithetic part to be generally small. Thus, we will be able to produce negatively correlated system outputs.
(2) larger service time v.s. smaller service time
Larger service time has two impacts
a. More people might line up. Thus, consumers might wait for longer time before getting the service. b. The actual service time is part of the time in the system for a consumer. Longer service time will directly contribute to longer time in the system.
Thus, having when service time for two rounds of simulating being negatively correlated can also help to generate negatively correlated system output.

A Queueing system without variance reduction [first strategy]¶
Simulate the single queueing system. Assume that the system will only take the first 20 customers.
Assume
• the inter-arrival time follows $t_a \sim Exp(\lambda=10)$
• the service time follows $t_s \sim Exp(\lambda=11)$
In [0]:
## Arrival: poisson process with λ=100 for this hour.
## Service: Customers will be served in a counter based on first-come first serve with the service time following exponential distribution with λ=110
## Simulation stops when t>T
## Return the average waiting time for customers who finished receiving the service

This will allow us to get another system output $x_{anti}$ • compute the average of the two $y=\frac{x_{original}+x_{anti}}{2}$ • repeat the above many times • construct the confidence interval using all the $y$'s collected In [0]: ## Arrival: poisson process with λ=100 for this hour. ## Service: Customers will be served in a counter based on first-come first serve with the service time following exponential distribution with λ=110 ## Simulation stops when t>T

For examle, what if we want to simulate the system until T? In this case, we can first generate the original part like what we did before. However, this might mean we generated too many or too few arrivals for the antithetic. If we generated too many arrivals, we can simply only keep the arrivals that happened before T. However, if we did not generate enough arrivals for the anththetic part, we will simply generate more arrivals until using the regular method. For example, let's assume that we would like to simulate the system until t=2 instead of only allowing 20 customers.

We will feed in the random numbers we generated for the original arrivals. Once we get the anthtietic arrivals, we will possibly generate more arrivals if the last arrival happened before T.

After we determine the number of arrivals, we will need to do the same thing for the service time.
