Abstract

Demos is a portable, strongly typed, extensible, process oriented, discrete event simulation language embedded in Simula. It extends Simula with a library of standard process synchronisation devices together with facilities for data collection, random number generation, tracing and automatic reporting. We review the synchronisation features of Demos programs and the structure of Demos programs and then illustrate modelling in Demos by a set of graded examples.
