===Output data===

When a simulation has been completed, the data needs to be analysed. The simulation's output data will only produce a likely ''estimate'' of real-world events. Methods to increase the accuracy of output data include: repeatedly performing simulations and comparing results, dividing events into batches and processing them individually, and checking that the results of simulations conducted in adjacent time periods “connect” to produce a coherent holistic view of the system.<ref name="flood" /><ref name="akimaru">Akimaru H., Kawashima K., ''Teletraffic – Theory and Applications'', Springer-Verlag London, 2nd Edition, 1999, pg 6</ref>
