ALES-DEVS An Ecosystem Simulator built with DEVSJava
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ecosystem modeling is traditional done using flexible, agent based models, or by using ordinary differential equations to estimate behavior over large populations. Both of these approaches have positive and negative aspects. The DEVS modeling system is a discrete event modeler that may be able to combine the positive aspects of discrete event simulation with the ability to run giant simulations that is typically only found in highly abstract sytems using ODE. In this paper, we describe a simple ecosystem simulator designed in DEVSJava.

Simulation Interoperability Across Parallel DEVS Models Ex- pressed in Multiple Programming Languages
Research efforts have focused on developing methods and technologies to support interoperability among different simulations. In addition, modeling and simulation frameworks have also been extended to support distributed simulation. In this research we present a many-to-many approach to model to simulator mapping. The goal is for a Parallel DEVS model described in one programming language to be...

Analysis and design of network systems relies on simulation models that can describe important traits such as performance and scalability. Essential for specifying network designs are concepts and methods that can support developing well-formed simulation models. The network simulator ns-2 can be used to model and simulate high resolution dynamics of network protocols. For developing new or exi...
متن کاملNeuro-DEVS, an hybrid environment to describe complex systems
Several methodologies has been developed to specify complex systems formally [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Among those formalisms stands the DEVS formalism and Artificial Neu-ral Networks. Although no direct comparisons are possible between the two techniques, both can provide good results when they are applied to the same problem. DEVS formalism is a set-theoretic formalism. It allows the definition of...
متن کاملA method for DEVS simulation of e-commerce processes for integrated business and technology evaluation (WIP)
Performance evaluation of electronic commerce processes requires an integrated vision of the capacities offered by computational resources, website functionalities, and resulting financial outcomes. Simulation is a tool that allows trying out alternative business configurations before implementation. This requires a method that articulates models construction, representing the relation between ...
