This page contains information about the numerous Model Samples available. The list of models can be used to learn the basics about the simulation tool. We encourage the users to bring back updated models to the community by accessing our [ sourceforge site of open-source models].
A comprehensive list of models can be found here
Publications
Numerous publications discuss the contents of the models introduced in our model samples. Here's a few of them:
General
- Discrete-Event Modeling and Simulation: a practitioner's approach (book). G. Wainer. (click here to get it at Amazon).
In Spanish
Do you prefer to read Spanish? - Metodologías de modelización y simulación de eventos discretos. G. Wainer. Nueva Librería. 2002.
Contents of the model files
Each of the entries in the model respository contain a generic description. The user can find a more detailed description of each model in the different document files found on the archives. <p>All of the above samples include the following files:
FileName.MA: Model description file. In the case of a DEVS model, this describes the coupled model and initial parameters. In the case of Cell-DEVS models, it includes the whole model
FileName.EV (optional): external events file
FileName.VAL (optional): A file with initial values for a Cell-DEVS model
FileName.BAT: A script used to run the simulation with the correct parameters (available for Windows platforms only; it can be simply modified to be used under other platforms). It executes the simulation and it generates a LOG file
FileNameDRW.BAT (optional): A script used to activate the DRAWLOG tool, where the results can be seen in a matrix (only available with some cellular models)
FileName.LOG (optional): A log file generated by the simulator
FileName.DRW (optional): A file generated by DRAWLOG, where the results can be seen in a matrix
The DEVS models are written in C++, and includes :
NAME.CPP: The C++ source code file of the NAME model. This file is needed to recompile the simulator properly (Download an example here!)
NAME.H: The C++ header file of the NAME model. This file is needed to recompile the simulator properly (Download an example here!)
