Abstract

Simulation languages typically are designed to substantially reduce the time and cost required to build simulation models by automatically providing commonly needed facilities, such as statistics gathering, a timing mechanism, random deviates, powerful list processing, and flexible storage management. However, the greatest benefit derived from the use of a simulation tool such as SIMSCRIPT II.5 derives from its powerful “world-view” or method of modeling. This world view provides a guide for conceptualizing the system to be modelled in a way that translates naturally into a computer language.
