Abstract
Simulation methods play a key role in the modelling of theoretical or actual physical systems. Such models can approximate the behaviour of the real system and provide insights into its operation. Well-determined input parameters are of prime importance for obtaining reliable simulations due to their impact on the performance of the simulation design. Among various strategies for producing input parameter samples is Latin hypercube design (LHD). LHDs are generated by Latin hypercube sampling (LHS), a type of stratified sampling that can be applied to multiple variables. LHS has proven to be an efficient and popular method; however, it misses some important elements. While LHS focuses on the parameter space aspects, this paper highlights five more aspects which may greatly impact the efficiency of sampling. In this paper, we do not provide solutions but rather bring up unanswered questions which could be missed during strategy planning on model simulation.
