Component-based Simulation Environments: JSIM as a Case Study Using Java Beans

Component-based software can be used to develop highly modular simulation environments supporting high reusability of software components. This paper examines a case study in which JSIM, a Java-based simulation environment, is extended using Java Beans technology. This allows simulation models to be treated as components that can be dynamically assembled to build more complex models. It also allows simulation inputs and outputs to be dynamically linked to database systems.
