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

Large and complex simulation models are expensive to build and to validate. To increase efficiency and effectiveness, approaches are needed that accelerate model development and reduce the risk of an invalid model. Component-based model development is an approach that promises to reduce

Many discrete-event simulators are developed concurrently, but with identical or similar purpose. This poster presents the Open Simulation Architecture (OSA), a discrete-event component-based simulation platform whose goal is to favor the reuse and integration of simulation software components

usability is severely limited. ns2 (ns2, 1990), perhaps the most widely used network simulator, has been extended to include some basic facilities to simulate sensor networks. However, one of the problems of ns2 is its object-oriented design that introduces much unnecessary interdependency between

, simulation environments must be able to support the reuse of models in many ways. This paper complements work regarding structural reuse and presents some insight in designing models that are amiable for component based simulation.

This paper presents the complete description of a non-iterative algorithm for the distributed component based simulation of the dynamics of multibodies. The simulation of well-partitioned systems has complexity O(N), where N is the total number of bodies. The algorithm was implemented
