Abstract

Simulation is getting more and more Important for designing and developing systems. In the software design simulation is not very much emphasized despite of the complexity of the problems to be solved. In BORIS, a block-oriented interactive simulation system for discrete systems, the simulation modeling process conforms with the software design methodology. Therefore BORIS is most suited for modeling and simulating the software system and is applicable to the software life cycle. The simulation model corresponds to the structure of the designed system; it is realized as a net of agencies. An agency is a functional block with inputs and/or outputs. The agengies are linked to a net of agencies. Keywords: Software Design Methodology, Software Tool, Modeling, Simulation, Agency, Net of Agencies, BORIS
