RESIM 2014, 27-29 August 2014

RESIM 2014 is the 10th International Workshop on Rare Event Simulation. It covered all aspects of rare event simulation ranging from purely theoretical developments to practical applications.

The objective of the RESIM Workshops is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners working in different locations and on different applications to present recent results, exchange ideas, and discuss open problems and new directions.

 

The workshop was held at the Tinbergen Institute in Amsterdam, Netherlands, August 27-29, 2014.
