Abstract

A parallel algorithm is implemented to simulate sample paths of stationary normal processes possessing a Butterworth-type covariance, in order to investigate asymptotic properties of the first passage time probability densities for time-varying boundaries. After a self-contained outline of the simulation procedure, computational results are included to show that for large times and for large boundaries the first passage time probability density through an asymptotically periodic boundary is exponentially distributed to an excellent degree of approximation.

This work has been performed within a joint cooperation agreement between Japan Science and Technology Corporation (JST) and Universit`a di Napoli Federico II, under partial support by National Research Council (CNR) and by Ministry of University and of Scientific and Technological Research (MURST).
