Social simulation implies two preconditions: determining a population and simulate the information diffusion within it. A population represents a group of interconnected individuals sharing information. In this paper, the population we generate is detailed by socio-cultural features, specifically the way that people tend to link together. To this end, the use of a social network is a little bit restrictive: people are linked by only one relationship. Multidimensional Social Networks (MSN) model 3D social networks where each dimension represent a kind of relationship [1]. This architecture allows us to better represent the diversity of humans relations but also define distinctive rules for the message diffusion simulation. The inner idea is that information disseminates differently according to the links through which the information propagates. So, we present in this paper the modeling of our MSN based on social science and a simulation using propagation rules set for each dimension.
a b s t r a c tEnterprises information systems (EIS) take benefits of latest advanced of web services and Internet of things to improve information retrieving and gathering for decision making. Furthermore, EIS should permit a more comprehensive information routing in the company within an electronic workflow in order to save time, cost and to reduce production impact on the environment. Such software has to interact frequently with real world data acquired by different sensors. Nevertheless this combination of software and hardware devices frequently faces interoperability problems. Also, testing and validating the EIS is not trivial without testing in real condition that can lead to deploy the large system. Authors assumed that testing and validating part of the system behaviour can be anticipated progressively by simulation, permitting then more progressive and confident system integration. This paper proposes to introduce a new workflow demonstration platform to combine simulation world with real world interacting with sensor, human interfacing and web service calls. In detail, this paper proposes to combine the Taverna Workflow tool, which handles and triggers web services call proposed by a platform server, to other software components. This combination has revealed one drawback of major workflows orchestrators; they do not provide time management facilities to handle synchronization during parallel execution of interdependent workflows. To overcome that limitation a clock ordering solution has been added by reusing G-DEVS/HLA to synchronize workflows running in parallel. The imbrications of G-DEVS M&S with Taverna workflow is now operating thanks to HLA. This work is validated by demonstrating the interoperability and the complementarity of these approaches on a logistic platform study case.
