Modeling approaches
• Event-scheduling approach
• Can uses general programming languages, or some
simulation languages
• During processing of an event, no simulated time
passes
• Process-interaction approach
• Now used by most simulation software
• Instead of identifying events, identify entities (a.k.a.
processes) that are created, flow around or through the
system, maybe leave
• May have multiple realizations of an entity/process
• May have different kinds of entities/processes
• “Program” consists of a description of what happens
to the different kinds of processes (including their
entry and exit)
• Usually expressed graphically, like a flowchart
