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.

A hybrid system is defined as a mixture of continuous systems and discrete event systems. This paper first proposes a framework for hybrid systems modeling, called Hybrid Discrete Event System Specification (HDEVS) formalism. It then presents a method for simulators interoperation in which a continuous system simulator and a discrete event simulator are executed together in a cooperative manner. The formalism can specify a hybrid system in a way that a continuos system and a discrete event system are separately modeled by their own specification formalisms with a support of well-defined interface. We call such interface an A/E converter for analog-to- event conversion and an E/A converter for event-to-analog conversion. Simulators interoperation is based on the concept of pre-simulation in which simulation time for a continuous simulator is advanced in accordance with a discrete event simulator.

This paper describes a methodology for the development of models of discrete event system. The methodology is based on transformation of continuous state space into discrete one to homomorphically represent dynamics of continuous processes in discrete events. This paper proposes a formal structure which can coupled discrete event system models within a framework. The structure employs the discrete event specification formalism for the discrete event system models. The proposed formal structure has been applied to develop a discrete event specification model for the complex spectral density analysis of strip for urin analyzer system. For this, spectral density data of strip is partitioned into a set of Phases based on events identified through urine spectrophotometry. For each phase, a continuous system of the continuous model for the urine spectral density analysis has been simulated by programmed C++. To validate this model, first develop the discrets event specification model, then simulate the model in the DEVSIM++ environment. It has the similar simulation results for the data obtained from the continuous system simulation. The comparison shows that the discrete event specification model represents dynamics of the urine spectral density at each phase.

본 연구에서 우리는 복합 이벤트(complex event)와 관점지향 프로그래밍(aspect-oriented programming)을 함께 고려하여 확장된 복합 이벤트 모델을 제시한다. 우리는 이 두 모델의 통합을 통해 이벤트 상관 기반의 네트워크 관리 시스템에 적합한 진보된 이벤트 명세 방법을 제안한다. 구체적으로, 계층적 이벤트 구조를 지원하도록 모델을 확장하고 관점지향 프로그래밍의 교차점(point cut)을 이벤트로 인식하도록 한다. 또한 이벤트 명세를 인스턴스(instance) 단위로 할 수 있도록 이벤트 연산자를 제공하고 시간적 관계를 원활하게 표현할 수 있도록 한다. 마지막으로 다른 이벤트 모델과의 비교를 통해 본 이벤트 모델의 장점을 제시한다.

A magnetically levitated vehicle (Maglev) system is under commercialization as a new transportation system in Korea. The Maglev is operated by an unmanned automatic control system. Therefore, the plan of train operation should be carefully established and validated in advance. In general, when making a train operation plan, statistically predicted traffic data is used. However, a traffic wave often occurs in real train service, and demand-driven simulation technology is required to review a train operation plan and service quality considering traffic waves. We propose a method and model to simulate Maglev operation considering continuous demand changes. For this purpose, we employed a discrete event model that is suitable for modeling the behavior of railway passenger transportation. We modeled the system hierarchically using discrete event system specification (DEVS) formalism. In addition, through implementation and an experiment using the DEVSim++ simulation environment, we tested the feasibility of the proposed model. Our experimental results also verified that our demand-driven simulation technology can be used for a priori review of train operation plans and strategies.

항공용 SIL은 항공전자시스템의 통합 및 검증에 사용되는 통합시험환경이다. 항공용 SIL에는 여러 가지 제약으로 인해 항공기에 탑재되는 장비를 직접 연동할 수 없을 때 장비의 소프트웨어 모델이 필요하다. 지금까지 항공기 개발에 적용한 항공용 SIL의 소프트웨어 모델은 표준화된 방법 없이 일반적인 소프트웨어 개발 방법의 적용으로 재사용이 어려워 소프트웨어 모델 재사용을 위한 프레임워크의 필요성이 제기되었다. 이러한 항공용 SIL 모델의 표준화된 모델링 방법을 위해 DEVS (discrete event system specification) 형식론을 채용하였다. DEVS 형식론은 이벤트 구동(event-driven) 알고리즘이며 이는 기존의 항공용 SIL에 적용되는 절차적이고 반복적인 알고리즘과 어울려 동작하기 힘들다. 이에 본 논문에서는 항공용 SIL 모델의 특징과 기존 방식이 가지는 한계를 보완하고 모델의 재사용성을 극대화할 수 있는 이벤트 기반의 모델링 방법과 실시간 시뮬레이션 방법을 제안한다.

실시간 시스템의 복잡도가 증가함에 따라 임시방편적 시스템 해석 방법은 시스템 동작 영역 전체를 완전하게 분석하는 데는 한계가 있다. 모델링을 기반으로 한 정형 기법은 그러한 한계점을 극복 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 모델 기반 정형 기법을 이용하여 실시간 시스템의 안전성 및 필연성 등과 같은 논리적 타당성을 이산 사건 모델 수준에서 분석하는 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 분석 대상 실시간 시스템은 이산사건 수준에서 계층적으로 모듈화하여 모델을 명세하는 수학적 형식론인 DEVS (Discrete Event Systems Specification) 형식론으로 기술된다. 다음으로, 기술된 DEVS 모델은 시간 명세가 포함된 전역 상태 공간을 표현하는 C-DEVS (Communicating DEVS) 형식론으로 표현한 후 C-DEVS 형식론의 해석 알고리즘을 통해 시스템 동작을 분석된다. 제안된 C-DEVS 형식론 및 해석 알고리즘은 주어진 시스템의 동작 특성을 분석하는 과정에서 시스템의 상태 공간을 완전하게 빠짐없이 탐색하는 것을 보장한다. 간단한 건널목 제어 시스템의 안전성 분석 사례 연구를 통하여 제안된 모델 기반 해석 기법의 효율성을 예시 하였다.

This paper addresses a supervisory control problem to meet bounded time constraints in real-time nondeterministic discrete event systems (DESs) represented as timed transition models. For a timed language specification representing a bounded time constraint, this paper introduces the notions of trace-controllability and time-controllability. Based on the notions, this paper presents the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a supervisor for a real-time nondeterministic DES to achieve the specification.

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.
