Abstract

The SIMulation DAtabase System (SIMDABS) is a FORTRAN based data management system designed for use in simulation studies. While SIMDABS provides several commands for general data processing, most commands are tailored for the data manipulation needs of simulation. Commands may be accessed from any computer program which is able to call FORTRAN subprograms or through the use of the SIMDABS Operation Invocation Language (OIL). SIMDABS not only provides data handling commands, but also provides a data model, or framework, which guides the user in the organization of his data.
