Ad Hoc networks are characterized by fast dynamic changes in the topology of the network. Introduction of new routing algorithms requires a deep and trustworthy evaluation process. In this paper we describe an Interactive Flexible Ad Hoc Simulator (IFAS) that presents a modern and novel approach to the family of Ad Hoc simulators. This simulator supports unique viewing, debugging, tuning and in...

The LOTOS simulator Hippo was developed in the ESPRIT/SEDOS project. In this chapter we elaborate on its design process. We give an overview of the functional requirements on a LOTOS simulator for the analysis of dynamic behaviour. Following that we describe how the implementation of Hippo is derived by stepwise transformation of the LOTOS inference rules. 1. Functionality of a Simulator Tool I...

A process control training simulator can enhance learning by integrating the theoretical abstraction of textbooks with the tactile nature of the lab and plant. The primary objective of a training simulator is education. It can motivate, help with visualization, and provide hands-on practice and experience. This article explores the use and benefits of the Control Station training simulator for ...

The present study is aiming to develop a simulator of the mixing process in production installations of raw meal comprising all the main characteristics of the process and raw materials. The system is described by a TITO process regarding the adjustment of the two main quality indicators of the raw meal and regulated via PID controllers. The M Constrained Integral Gain Optimization (MIGO) metho...

In this paper we present a methodology for the integrated atomistic process and device simulation of decananometre MOSFETs. The atomistic process simulations were carried out using the kinetic Monte Carlo process simulator DADOS, which is now integrated into the Synopsys 3D process and device simulation suite Taurus. The device simulations were performed using the Glasgow 3D statistical atomist...

This manuscript shows how the connection and interaction between a process dynamic simulator and a dynamic accident simulator allow improving operators training, accident investigation, and safety management, by better modeling the feedbacks existing among process units and accidental events. In this perspective, the manuscript presents a rather simplified case study that allows simulating the ...

There is the educational color layer for CT2TEE, an online transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) simulator accessible at www.ct2tee.agh.edu.pl in the current paper presented. TEE is nowadays one of the most important diagnostic tools in cardiology. Because of the semi-invasive nature of this examination and complexity of heart structure the training process of learning TEE can be long and diff...

Mathematical models, usually implemented in computer programs known as simulators, are widely used in all areas of science and technology to represent complex real-world phenomena. Simulators are often so complex that they take appreciable amounts of computer time or other resources to run. In this context, a methodology has been developed based on building a statistical representation of the s...

Abstract: The use of mixed amine system in gas treating processes is increasing today. For natural gas sweetening purposes, mixed amines are typically mixtures of MDEA and DEA or MEA that enhance CO2 removal while retaining desirable characteristics of MDEA such as reduced corrosion problems and low heats of reaction. In this work, a process simulator was used to predict the performance of an I...
