Abstract

Complexity associated with the design of experiments for simulation models can be reduced through visualization. DEVS-Suite, a new generation of the DEVS Tracking Environment which itself was extended from DEVSJAVA, supports visual design of experiments and introduces simulation data visualization. Data generated by the selected models can be collected dynamically and displayed as time-based trajectories. These capabilities complement animation of DEVS model components and their interactions. A service-oriented software system is modeled to illustrate the novel modeling features for DEVS simulations. Another example is developed in Ptolemy II and SimEvents to show the reduced visual complexity afforded by DEVS-Suite.
