Introduction

Project handout given to us by Professor Jamshidian. This describes the project. [PDF]

The project contains 3 problems. To make it easier to run each problem (due to the use of Dynamic UI in the project), I implemented each one in a separate Mathematica notebook.

Below are the links to each problem. There are 3 links to each problem, one for the PDF file report, second for the HTML version of the report, and one for the Mathematica notebook itself to run the code.

In all 3 cases, to run the Mathematica code, please do the following:

Download the Mathematica notebook.
Open it using Mathematica 6.
Click on the Evaluation menu option at the top, and then
select Evaluate Notebook. This will run all the code. Scroll to the bottom of the notebook and the GUI should be UP and ready to use.

Simulation Movies

Simulation problem 1. Random variables from exponential distribution using F^-1 method

Click on the following movie file (flash movie) problemOne.swf (3 MB)

Simulation problem 2 (Random numbers from mixture)

Download this file [ part2.swf ] (Flash) to your PC (recommended) and open with the browser, or can just click it on now and it will run. (8 MB)

Simulation Problem 3 (Accept/Reject)

To see the simulation in a flash movie click on this HTML file. To download the flash movie itself (swf), here it is. Download to your PC and then open using your browser. It will run on your PC (It should run faster). (35 MB)
