This paper provides a language-independent introduction to the major simulation modeling world views for discrete-event systems simulation. A world view is the modeling framework that a modeler uses to represent a system and its behavior. The main terminology and concepts include systems and models, system state variables, entities and their attributes, lists, resources, events, activities and delays. These concepts are covered from the perspective of the modeler. Finally, in the tutorial, we will attempt to make these ideas concrete through the use of a number of examples and exercises. |
