Abstract

A Grab-and-Glue framework (Grab-and-Glue) has been proposed as a potential solution to deal with the problem of time-consuming and high cost during the development of a simulation model caused by classical simulation modelling frameworks. However, the way to develop a simulation model following Grab-and-Glue is still an unknown factor. Since the concept of Grab-and-Glue model development is similar to the technique of object reuse in Software Engineering, it might be a chance that such a technique could benefit to the development of a Grab-and-Glue model. In this paper, we are going to investigate this issue by studying the characteristics of Grab-and-Glue and the possibility of developing models on the basis of the object reuse techniques.
