Simulation Modeling at Multiple Levels of Abstraction

ON MODELING AT MULTIPLE LEVELS OF ABSTRACTION Perakath Benjamin Madhav Erraguntla Dursun Delen Richard Mayer Knowledge Based Systems, Inc. 1408 University Drive College Station, Texas 77845, U.S.A The purpose of this paper is to characterize the problem of levels of abstraction in simulation modeling and to develop an approach that addresses the problem. In this e describe the notion of abstraction and the technical problems associated with multiple levels of ion, how abstractions affect different activities during the simulation modeling process, a preliminary approach for addressing the problems associated with levels of abstraction, the conceptual architecture of a simulation modeling environment that implements the proposed approach, and a summary of the research on s of abstraction in simulation.
