Abstract:This paper compares the performance and features of five different tools for object-oriented simulation. Three of the tools (MODSIM II, SES/workbench, and Sim++) are commercial products that are targeted exclusively at simulation work. Also examined are simulations in Smalltalk-80 and our own, non-commercial C++ simulation library, called MOOSE (MITRE Object-Oriented Simulation Executive). For each of the tools, we discuss the support for simulation, the support for object-oriented design and the degree to whi… Show more
“…MOOSE adds several classes (primarily the process class) which facilitate the development of process model, discrete event, object-oriented, thread-based simulations. For a more complete description of MOOSE, see [3].…”
