| Popis: | This paper describes the development of a cohesive framework for discrete event simulation, and the embedded decision processes of a system being modeled. The work presented in the paper is an effort to develop a scientific base for simulation modeling. The paper addresses the need for separate and structured representations of physical and logical entities of a manufacturing system for simulation modeling. The formal and hierarchical constructs defined for physical and logical entities are based on a state-space representation that allows the integration of physical and logical facets in a model with varying degrees of detail. All the entities of a manufacturing system, from the most primitive to the most sophisticated, can be represented in a model by using one of the symbolic structures provided. The framework also describes the simulation dynamics by using the defined constructs. |
