Abstract

SODAS (Structure Oriented Description And Simulation) is a simulation language and compiler being designed at Carnegie Tech for use as a tool by the designers of computer systems. The structure of the language and its translator reflect a definition of "system" and a methodology for "system design." It is the purpose of this paper to present the proposed methodology and language.
