“…To illustrate the differences between K-and D-optimal designs, computer simulations using Matlab R2014a are performed. In general, the driving stationary Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes and fields of models (2.1) and (3.1), respectively, can be simulated either with the help of discretization (see, e.g., Gillespie, 1996) or using their Karhunen-Loève expansions based on representations (2.3) and (3.3) (Jaimez and Bonnet, 1987;Baran and Sikolya, 2012). However, in our simulation study, due to the small number of locations, it is sufficient to draw samples from the corresponding finite dimensional distributions.…”
