We have tested a new method of obtaining a drastic reduction in the number of classical trajectories to be used when computing transport properties in gases. Thus, it is demonstrated that a good importance-sampling function is p(U) =AU'. By using this sampling function, one can drastically reduce th

Importance sampling as a technique to improve the Monte Carlo method for probability integration can be shown to be extremely efficient and versatile. This paper addresses the accuracy and efficiency of the method, and its application to series and parallel systems in structures.
A network of servers, known as a grading in telecommunication engineering, is simulated in Qp3er to estimate the probability of a customer being "blocked": all servers busy. Since blocking is a very rare event (l%, to 5% chance), importance sampling was considered for reduction of the simulation var
