Abstract
Multiple-comparison procedures are useful for comparing the performance of competing systems via simulation. In this paper we extend a particular multiple-comparison procedure, multiple comparisons with the best, to steady-state simulation by using an autoregressive-output-analysis method.

On the Asymptotic Validity of Fully Sequential Selection Procedures for Steady-State Simulation
We present fully sequential procedures for steady-state simulation that are designed to select the best of a finite number of simulated systems when best is defined by the largest or smallest long-run average performance. We also provide a framework for ...
On the theoretical comparison of low-bias steady-state estimators
The time-average estimator is typically biased in the context of steady-state simulation, and its bias is of order 1/t, where t represents simulated time. Several “low-bias” estimators have been developed that have a lower order bias, and, to first-...
ASAP3: a batch means procedure for steady-state simulation analysis
We introduce ASAP3, a refinement of the batch means algorithms ASAP and ASAP2, that delivers point and confidence-interval estimators for the expected response of a steady-state simulation. ASAP3 is a sequential procedure designed to produce a ...
