Abstract:
Modeling and simulation are part of software development because of their ability of system abstraction and validation. One of the research motivation is oriented towards more interactivity during system requirements modeling and a possibility to investigate models under real condition. To achieve this goal, the system has to be modeled precisely. There is a lot of suitable paradigms---the paper concentrates especially on Object Oriented Petri Nets (OOPN) and Discrete-Event Specification (DEVS) formalisms. OOPN constitute an abstract formalism allowing a natural description of parallelism, synchronization and non-determinism. The formalism of DEVS constitutes a basis for a theory of modeling and simulation and can be considered as a basic platform for multi-paradigm system design. Therefore, the formalism of OOPN has been incorporated to the formalism of DEVS.
