Abstract

Computer simulations are extensively used for business and science applications. However, a simulation generically generates a certain class of dynamical system whose properties are poorly understood. In this paper, we will address theoretical issues on computer simulations and illustrate our concepts for the simulation of circular one-lane traffic. We propose a certain class of discrete dynamical systems (SDS) that captures key features of computer simulations and then show how SDS techniques can be applied in a case of infrastructure simulations.
