摘要
This paper develops a rare event simulation algorithm for a discrete-time Markov chain in the first orthant. The algorithm gives a very good estimate of the stationary distribution along one of the axes and it is shown to be efficient. A key idea is to study an associated time reversed Markov chain that starts at the rare event. We will apply the algorithm to a Markov chain related to a Jackson network with two stations.
