A new formalism for discrete event simulation is proposed based on the theoretical frameworks used for the formal analysis and specification of the different aspects of computer languages. The major elements of such a formalism are identified, defined, and discussed. This formalism includes the specification and validation of the structural and behavioral aspects of models specified in it. In this formalism, the behavioral specifications can be used to synchronize different components of a model. This enhances the modeling methodology.
