A Methodology For Developing Des Models: Event Graphs And Sharpsim
Authors: Arda Ceylan, Murat Gunal
Abstract
In this paper, a methodology for fast development of Discrete Event Simulation (DES) models is presented. The methodology simply works in two stages. In the first stage the modeler builds a Conceptual Model (CM) of the system to be modeled. A CM is represented as an Event Graph (EG). EGs are used to document the events and their causes in a system. In the second stage the CM is translated to an Event Based DES model. To fulfill this task we developed a DES library, SharpSim, using C# (CSharp) programming language. This paper gives an introduction to our methodology. We provide an insight into SharpSim and EGs, and illustrate a modeling example.
