Abstract

In this paper, we discuss an incremental approach to the development of reusable components for general-purpose, discrete-event simulation using Ada as the implementation language. The goal of this paper is to illustrate how a well-designed simple model can be extended in small increments to a more general system. We show that the use of Ada is a key element in this style of software engineering. The design of the system is object-based, and the components developed are reused in each successive step of the design and implementation.
