Abstract

A problem exists in efficiently combining a non-deterministic decision capability with a current discrete event simulation language for use by the simulationist (programmer and in the future the user). This paper explores this problem in the context of the discrete event simulation problem domain implemented in Siman. The purpose is (1) to provide an ontological definition of abstract ideas from data to wisdom, (2) identify a taxonomy of simulation and artificial intelligence combination dialects, and (3) establish the need for and then introduce a “decide node” which will assist the simulationist in incorporating a broader spectrum of the ontology more easily than current dialects allow.
