We describe a heterogeneous simulation framework, so called DEVS-HLA, in which conventional simulation models and the DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) models are interoperable. DEVS-HLA conceptually consists of three layers: model layer, DEVS BUS layer, and HLA (High Level Architecture) layer. The model layer has a collection of heterogeneous simulation models, such as DEVS, CSIM, SLAM, and so on, to represent various aspects of a complex system. The DEVS BUS layer provides a virtual software bus, DEVS BUS, so that such simulation models can communicate with each other. Finally, the HLA layer is employed as a communication infrastructure, which supports several good features for distributed simulation. The DEVS BUS has been implemented on the HLA/RTI (Run-Time Infrastructure) and a simple example of a flexible manufacturing system has been developed to validate the DEVS-HLA.

Development of distributed simulation environment must be required in order to simulate the distributed models regionally and inter-operate with running simulations individually, Simulation based on DEVS formalism is difficult to simulate the distributed models. DEVS formalism is modeling methodology. To specify model, this formalism separates behavior and structure, therefore it is able to design complex model easily. HLA is standard framework of distribute simulation environment, It is defined to facilitate the interoperability and the reusability. RTI (Run Time Infrastructure) is software that provides common service to simulation systems and implementation of the HLA Interface Specification. Method of implementation is that modules cooperating with RTI are added to simulator on DEVS simulation environment. On the DEVS simulation environment (DEVS-Obj -C) that already developed, Highest class of abstract simulator uses service that RTI provide, then This environment is able to change DEVS model into Federate and run distribute simulation that inter-operates with the RTI. Because this distributed simulation environment includes convenience of modeling that obtains through the DEVS formalism and accompanies HLA standard, this environment make it possible to simulate with_ complex systems and heterogeneous simulations

Presented in this paper is a modeling and simulation methodology for 3 dimensional man-made systems. Based on DEVS(discrete event system specification) formalism[13], we propose GK-DEVS (geometrical and kinematic DEVS) formalism to describe the geometrical and kinematic structure and continuous state dynamics. To represent geometry and kinematics, we add a hierarchical structure to the conventional atomic model. In addition, we employ the "empty event" and its external event function for continuous state changing. In terms of abstract simulation algorithm[13], the simulation method of GK-DEVS, named GK-Simulator, is proposed for combined discrete-continuous simulation. Using GK-DEVS, the simulation of an FMS(flexible manufacturing system) consisting of a luring machine, a 3-axis machine and a RGV-mounted robot has been peformed.en peformed.

In this paper, we propose a new events ordering mechanism for the optimistic distributed simulation of DEVS models. To simulate DEVS models in a distributed environment, a synchronization protocol is required for correct simulation. Time Warp is the most well-known optimistic synchronization protocol for distributed simulation. However, employing the Time Warp protocol in distributed simulation of DEVS models incurs events ordering problem due to the semantic difference between Time Warp and DEVS, Thus, to resolve such semantic difference, we devise the time-and-priority-stamp and $\varepsilon$ -delay schemes. The proposed schemes can order simultaneous events correctly in Time Warp-based distributed simulation of DEVS models.Time Warp and DEVS, Thus, to resolve such semantic difference, we devise the time-and-priority-stamp and $\varepsilon$ -delay schemes.

이산사건시스템명세(DEVS) 형식론은 이산사건시스템을 모듈러하고 계층적으로 모델링할 수 있는 잘 정의된 의미론을 제공하고 있어 이산사건시스템 모델링 시뮬레이션 (M&S)에 많이 사용되어 왔다. 이러한 수학적 표현 대신에 DEVS 다이어그램은 복잡한 시스템을 보다 직관적이며 편리한 표현력을 제공한다. 본 논문은 DEVS 다이어그램을 이용하여 표현된 모델을 시뮬레이션 코드로 체계적으로 구현하며 검증하는 DEVS 클린룸 프로세스를 제안하였다. 구체적으로, 주어진 다이어그램 모델의 적합성 검사, 테이블 DEVS 모델로의 변환, 마지막으로 시뮬레이션 소스코드로 변환하는 방법과 역으로 추적성을 기반으로 한 검사기법을 통해 정적 검증하는 구체적인 방법을 제시하였다. 간단한 예제를 통해 제안된 프로세스를 적용하는 구체적인 방법을 설명하였으며, 적용사례 통해 제안된 기법이 실용적으로 적용 가능한 효과적인 프로세스임을 확인하였다.

Zeigler's DEVS(Discrete Event Systems Specification) formalism supports formal specification of discrete event systems in a hierarchical , modular manner. Associated are hierarchical, distributed simulation algorithms, called abstract simulators, which interpret dynamics of DEVS models. This paper deals with performance evaluation of P-DEVSIM ++, a parallel simulation environment which implements the DEVS formalism and associated simulation algorithms in a parallel environment. Performance simulator has been developed and used to experiment models of parallel simulation executions in different conditions. The experimental result shows that simulation time depends on both the number of processors in the parallel system and the communication overheads among such processors.

In order to cope with the changes of container terminal situation in these days, many simulation studies for container terminal have been accomplished. But previous simulation studies using simulation language have limitations in model representation and difficulties in modeling of large scaled container terminal system. To make these problems better, this paper addresses an object-oriented simulation of container terminal system using a DEVS formalism. The DEVS(Discrete Event System Specification) formalism, developed by Zeigler, supports specification of discrete event system in a hierarchical and modular manner. The formalism provides a mathematical basis for studying discrete event systems with better understood and sounder semantics. In a step of system modeling, a DEVS formalism aims at the exact system modeling that has a basis of semantics and utilizing the object-oriented manner can flexibly cope with the changes of system environment. In this study a model is developed and verified through the simulation of some alternatives.

본 논문에서는 DEVS 형식론과 High Level Architecture에 기반을 둔 이 기종 시뮬레이션 환경의 구축에 대해 기술한다. DEVS 형식론은 여러 가지 방법으로 기술된 모델들을 동일한 형식론으로 간주하기 위해 사용되었다. 즉, 이산사건 모델링을 위한 세가지 세계관(world view)으로 기술된 시뮬레이션 모델들을 DEVS 형식론으로의 변환을 통해 전체적으로는 DEVS 형식론만을 사용한 것과 동일한 형태로 표현되도록 하였다. High Level Architecture는 시뮬레이션 수행시의 상호 연동성을 보장하기 위해 사용되었다. 이때, DEVS 형식론과 High Level Architecture에서의 시뮬레이션 시간 진행 방법이 다르기 때문에 이의 해결을 Synchronizer, EOS 방법을 제안하였다.

Petri nets is a widely used formalism for specification and analysis of concurrent systems which is a subclass of discrete event systems. The DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) formalism provides a general framework for specification of discrete event systems in a hierarchical, modular form. Often, modeling a discrete event system may employ both Petri Nets and DEVS formalism. In such a case low-level operational logics are modeled by Petri Nets and high-level managements by the DEVS formalism. Analysis of the system requires simulation of the overall system. This paper presents an algorithm for transformation of Petri Nets to DEVS formalism. The transformation enables modelers to simulate an overall system, which consists of DEVS models and Petri Nets models, in a unified DEVS simulation environment such as DEVSim++. An example for such transformation will be given.
