Abstract
Event Graphs are a way of graphically representing
discrete-event simulation models. Also known as
"Simulation Graphs," they have a minimalist design,
with a single type of node and two types of edges with
up to three options. Despite this simplicity, Event
Graphs are extremely powerful. The Event Graph is
the only graphical paradigm that directly models the
event list logic. There are no limitations to the ability
of Event Graphs to create a simulation model for any
circumstance. Their simplicity, together with their
extensibility, make them an ideal tool for rapid construction
and prototyping of simulation models. In
this paper we will demonstrate the ability of Event
Graphs to leverage simple models into more complex
ones with very few additional features.
