Abstract

This paper presents a brief overview of existing techniques oriented toward improving the executional efficiency of simulation models. It then presents a new heuristics-based technique, describing some language, data, and algorithmic requirements for a simulation package to selectively remove levels of detail from a model in such a way as to decrease the execution time requirements (and cost) of experimenting with the model.
