Object-Oriented Simulation with Hierarchical, Modular Models:
Intelligent Agents and Endomorphic Systems describes an approach to
object-oriented discrete event simulation and the concepts of
hierarchical, modular model construction, The implementation of the
concepts of multifaceted modeling methodology in the DEVS-Scheme
modeling and simulation environment is discussed. The use of the
DEVS-Scheme environment in modeling artificial intelligent agents is
also considered, along with the concept of endomorphism to
characterize the application of self-embedded models, including models
of self. Comprised of 15 chapters, this book begins with an overview
of the dimensions of knowledge representation in simulation
environments, followed by a discussion on object-oriented programming
as well as the concepts of modular, hierarchical models and the system
entity structure. Subsequent chapters focus on digraph-models and
experimental frames; DEVS formalism and DEVS-Scheme simulation
environment; a model base for simple multi-computer architectures; and
rule-based specification of atomic models. Model bases in endomorphic
systems and intelligent agents are also examined. This monograph will
be of interest to simulation theorists as well as practitioners and
researchers in the fields of artificial intelligence, systems
engineering, computer science and engineering, and operations
research.
