DEVS is a discrete-event formalism that allows a hierarchical and modular description of the models. DEVS can describe behavioral models (atomic) or structural (coupled). Cell-DEVS allows modeling systems that can be represented as executable cell spaces. Details about the DEVS formalism can be found in:

“Theory of Modeling and Simulation”. B. Zeigler, H. Praehofer, T. G. Kim. 2nd Edition. Academic Press. 2000.
