This paper describes the CONVERSIM simulation language. CONVERSIM is a developmental general-purpose, discrete-event language which has been used in the classroom to introduce the use and operation of simulators prior to the introduction of languages ...

At the University of Georgia, two introductory courses in simulation are offered in the College of Business Administration: one to advanced undergraduates (usually seniors) who are majoring in Management Science, and the other to beginning graduate ...

Σ (pronounced SIGMA denoting Simulation Graphical Modeling and Analysis) is an interactive graphics approach to building, testing, and experimenting with discrete event simulation models on personal computers. Σ is written in C but is self-contained and ...

The Defense Systems Concepts (DSC), Inc. EW Group is currently developing a discrete time-driven stochastic computer simulation known as EW-GEMS (Electronic Warfare-Generic Enemy Missile Simulation). EW-GEMS will provide for a fully detailed depiction ...

Selecting appropriate buffer sizes for the transport systems of automated manufacturing systems is a complex task that must account for random fluctuations in production rates by individual machines as well as the transport delays that are a part of the ...

The paper discusses work in developing a prototype of an intelligent software environment to support system design and simulation activities. Knowledge-Based System Design and Multifaceted Modelling are foundational basis for the development. The paper ...

The history of the winter Simulation Conference provides insight into the working environment and intellectual and managerial attitudes during the formative period of simulation software development. It also suggests a basis for comparison with current ...
