Control Parameter Sensitivity Estimate in an Operation Dependent Unreliable Production Line
运行相依不可靠生产线的控制参数灵敏度估计

For a two-stage production line system with operation dependent unreliable maechines, regulated by a threshold control policy, a simple algorithm is presented to get an unbiased estimate of the gradient of the performance index with respect to control parameters. Simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.
