A driving vehicle performance which is driven by FTP-75 mode was simulated by computer. Throttle valve position, engine speed, air mass flow rate, fuel consumption et al. were computer simulated. A set of engine part load performance data, automatic transmission shift map and vehicle specifications were used for the computer simulation. Throttle valve position, engine speed, air mass flow rate et al. measured for evaluating the computer simulation results by driving the vehicle with FTP-75 mode on a chassis dynamometer. GT-Power$^{(R)}$ software was used for the computer simulation of the driving vehicle performance. Experimental fuel consumption rate was measured by using an ECU HILS fuel injection system. The experimental data and simulation results were compared. The computer simulation of the driving vehicle performance predicts the measured data well comparatively.

With the rapidly increasing complexity of decision-marking or system development in the fields of industry, management, etc., modelling techniques using simulation has become more highlighted. Particularly, the advent of parallel computer systems not only has opened a new horizon of parallel simulation, but also has greatly contributed to the speed-up of the execution of simulation. The implementation of parallel simulation, however, is not a easy job for those who accustomed to the existing computer systems. And it is also necessarily confronted with the problem of synchronization conflict in the process. Thus, how to allow a wider community of users to gain access to parallel simulation while solving synchronization conflicts has become an important issue in simulation study. As a method to solve these problems, this paper is primarily concerned with the implementation of GPSS which is a generally used simulation language for discrete event simulation, onto a parallel computer using C-LINDA. For that, this paper, is to suggest a model and algorithm and to experiment it using a case.

This work deals with nonlinear least squares method for estimating unknown universial constants C in a computer simulation code real experimental data(or database) and computer simulation data. The best linear unbiased predictor based on a spatial statistical model is fitted from the computer simulation data. Then nonlinear least squares estimation method is applied to the real data using the fitted prediction model(or simulation predictor) as if it were the true simulation model. An application to the computational nuclear fusion device is presented.

The CC-NUMA based, distributed shared memory is an emerging architecture for multiprocessor computer systems because of its scalability and easy of programming. In this paper, we analyzed performance of a ring-based, CC-NUMA multiprocessor computer system using a commercial workload targeted for popular OLTP applications. Based on the traces collected from real machines, the characteristics of the commercial workload could be obtained. The simulation results showed that the bottleneck on the ring could be effectively removed by using a dual ring structure. We believe our simulation methodology and results will help us to design better multiprocessor computer systems for commercial application domains.

In this Paper, the estimation method of painting process in the automobile plant using computer simulation techniques is studied to improve the bottle neck process, the weak point and the productivity. For model and analysis, Promodel is used which is a manufacturing oriented simulation software developed by Promodel corporation in the U.S.A. Firstly the result of the simulation shows that we can obtain capability improvement in the system performance using computer simulation. Secondly, the optimum system specification is decided by comparing reports generated by scenario in simulation program find out the suitable conditions. Finally, the speed of conveyor and a pitch of painting body as the most critical parameters are chosen on the basis of exhaustive field evaluation to study their effects o the capacity of the process. The best alternative condition for the maximum capacity of the process is selected by computer simulation.

The DEVS(discrete event system specification) formalism describes a discrete event system in a hierarchical, modular form. DEVSIM++ is C++ based general purpose DEVS abstract simulator which can simulate systems to be modeled by the DEVS formalism in a sequential environment. We implement P-DEVSIM++ which is a parallel version of DEVSIM++. In P-DEVSIM++, the external and internal event of models can be processed in parallel. To process in parallel, we introduce a hierarchical distributed simulation technique and some optimistic distributed simulation techniques. But in our algorithm, the rollback of a model is localized itself in contrast to the Time Warp approach. To evaluate its performance, we simulate a single bus multiprocessor architecture system with an external common memory. Simulation result shows that significant speedup is made possible with our algorithm in a parallel environment.

This study was conducted to develop a computer simulation program for trickle application of nutrient solution. A computer simulation program using finite element method was developed to evaluate discharges of emitters on trickle application. The uniformity of application for two different lateral line lengths and three application methods was evaluated by the computer simulation program. The results of this study are as follows. 1. A computer simulation program was developed to determine emitter discharges from a trickle application system and pressures at emitter positions by finite element method and to design a uniform trickle application system. 2. The simulation program developed was verified by experiment. The root mean square error between experimental data and simulated data was 1.1% on the average discharge and it was found that the computer simulation program was an effective tool for the design of a trickle application system of nutrient solution. 3. The uniformity of trickle application system was evaluated for three different methods of supplying nutrient solution with different lateral line lengths. The best uniformity was obtained from the method, which supplies nutrient solution from both ends alternatively for the same period of time.

Computer simulation is a powerful tool for the design and evaluation of manufacturing systems. This paper consists of two major parts. First, it presents a brief survey of simulation languages oriented towards the analysis of manufacturing systems, with their important properties. Second, it introduces a simple case of simulation application to a flexible manufacturing system(FMS).

The sophistication of current software applications results in the increasing cost fur software development time. The component-based software development framework is proposed to overcome the difficulty and time-consuming requirements by modularity and reusability. As is the general software case, a component-based simulation framework encourages the reusability of the real system model based on the modularity of the applied simulation methodology. This paper presents a component-based simulation environment that is based on the DEVS/COM run-time infrastructure. The DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) formalism provides a formal modeling and simulation framework for the generic dynamic systems [1] and Microsoft's COM (Component Object Model) is one of the strongest competitor fur the component standard. The reusability by the DEVS/COM simulation environment saves model development time remarkably and component technology make simulator itself to be a subparts of real application.

This paper presents a structure and architecture of an integrated simulation method (ISM) to meet the requirements of virtual factory engineering (VFE). Combining CAD, VR and discrete event simulation techniques, the ISM provides static and dynamic simulation functions for implementation of VFE throughout the lifecycle. The static simulation can be used to evaluate the factory layout. The dynamic simulation enables us to evaluate ergonomics of factory, process performance of production system, feasibility of production plan and operation of factory, and to train operators safely, which cover the whole VFE lifecycle. The principles of the key techniques of VFE, including virtual factory data management system (VFDMS), static and dynamic simulation, are also discussed. To demonstrate and validate the ISM, a case study has been carried out in an assembly factory.
