Abstract

This paper is a tutorial on program development in Simula. It assumes a reading knowledge of Simula, and sketches the design of a local area network simulator (Cambridge Ring architecture) in five logical levels: machine interface, queueing, simulation primitives, data collection primitives and finally the network components. Besides program development technique, we also emphasize the value of class body actions, inner, the virtual mechanism and data protection.
