There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

We introduce new estimators for the variance parameter of a steady-state simulation output
process. The new estimators are linear combinations of estimators formed from overlapped
versions of standardized time series and/or batch means estimators using different batch sizes.
These "overlapping overlapping" estimators have both lower bias and variance than their original
overlapping (without linear combinations) counterparts. The work is joint with Tuba Aktaran.
