A structural approach to simulation in support of computer system design

Published: 01 January 1977 Publication History

Abstract

This paper describes the various features of a new approach to supporting computer system design by simulating the computer system as it progresses through levels of increasingly detailed design These features include model specifications, use of structured programming, choice of simulation system or language, organization of simulation effort and personnel, the “chief modeler” concept, the model development process, modeler/designer information flow and interfaces, and the modeling of workload. An analysis is made of relative life cycle cost between the structured approach to simulation and the traditional approach of supporting a computer design effort.
