Abstract

DEVS is a formal modeling and simulation (M&S) framework based on generic dynamic system concepts. Cell-DEVS is a formalism for cell-divided models based on DEVS. Cellular automata can be used to model tapestries by implementing them as a 3-D cell space. In this work we simulate some models of Persian tapestry by Cell-DEVS formalism, considering each cell as a knot in tapestry. There are three planes (tapestry plane, front plane and rear plane) each containing n by n cells. The final shape of tapestry is represented in the tapestry plane. We simulate variety of design patterns with different sizes of tapestries to illustrate simple to complex designs. The simulator used in this work is CD++, an M&S toolkit that implements DEVS and Cell-DEVS theories. The results of the simulation are presented in 2D environment with CD++ modeler.
