Component-Based Simulation Modeling
Abstract
This paper presents a component-based framework for
designing simulation models and discusses its
implementation in a package called Simkit. In this
framework, Components are defined to be monolith
software entities that interact with other components in one
of only three ways. Although seemingly restrictive, this
approach supports more extensibility and customization of
simulation models than conventional Object-Oriented
design.
