Practical Process Simulation Using Object-Oriented Techniques and C++

This text is intended to help novices as well as seasoned professionals gain a better understanding of the construction and use of process simulation models using object-oriented modelling and programming. The book details both the fundamentals and implementation aspects of simulation modelling using C++. It aims to provide insight into the dynamic behaviour of various types of systems, which can be applied to operating systems, computer networks, real-time systems and other computer-related systems. The software included features a set of classes and case studies for constructing simulation models in C++ and a language translator for the PsimL simulation language, and overhead slides in MS PowerPoint. The system requirements: PC, workstation, or server with C++ compiler; Windows (3.x, 95, NT), MSDOS, or UNIX. The software requires 2Mb RAM for the DOS models, 8Mb RAM for the Windows Models and 1.4Mb on hard disk for the files supplied in the diskette.
