Complex artificial dynamic systems require advanced modeling techniques that can accommodate their asynchronous, concurrent, and highly non-linear nature. Discrete Event systems Specification (DEVS) provides a formal framework for hierarchical construction of discrete-event models in a modular manner, allowing for model re-use and reduced development time.Discrete Event Modeling and Simulation presents a practical approach focused on the creation of discrete-event ...

This proceedings constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques, SIMUTools 2023, held in Seville, Spain, in December 2023.The 23 revised full papers were carefully selected from 58 submissions. The papers focus on various areas such as Simulation Tools and Methods; Artificial Intelligence and Simulation; Transportation and Logistics; Medical Sciences; and Network Simulations.

Collecting the work of the foremost scientists in the field, Discrete-Event Modeling and Simulation: Theory and Applications presents the state of the art in modeling discrete-event systems using the discrete-event system specification (DEVS) approach. It introduces the latest advances, recent extensions of formal techniques, and real-world examples of various applications.The book covers many topics that pertain to several layers of the modeling and simulation arc...
