The probabilistic validation of computer simulations using the bootstrap / by Efraim Halfon.: En13-5/88-35E-PDF

"This paper integrates statistical and system methods to reduce the computational requirements to validate a simulation model. The bootstrap is a statistical method that analyzes probabilistic events. A common way to validate ecological models is to run Monte Carlo simulations, that is, the model is run 100 to 500 times to study its probabilistic properties. By analyzing the simulation model with the bootstrap, the simulation model needs to be run only once"--Management Perspective.
