A notion proposed by Abbott (1991) concerning primarily the software and hardware development of simulation tools seems to have come true. New achievements in hardware and software, such as Dual-processors, high density media opens a space for new operation systems, Windows NT for example. The gap between compilers that can be used to design different modules of software, such as model management, computer graphics, database connections and the numerical algorithm itself, is rapidly deepening. The outlook of present word processors, spreadsheets, high standard level of pre-and-post processing techniques makes new demands on developers of mathematical models to change their programming paradigm. Knowledge encapsulation and integration of several tools into a numerical model may easily navigate a user through a modular part of a software. The authors would like to use the HYPRESS package as an example of possible way satisfying some of the required features. |
