The authors discuss the necessity of multiple flexible output forms in an educational Web simulation environment. Ideally, such an environment should allow the creation of visual, interactive simulations and their integration in the pages of the Web document being constructed. As a suitable candidate for this, the authors propose their system to generate documents for the Web that consists of three layers: continuous simulation language OOCSMP and its associated language layers SODA-1L and SODA- 2L. OOCSMP and SODA are compiled into Java applets and HTML/VRML pages by a compiler called C-OOL. Different output forms can be combined to solve and show the results of a simulation problem. The authors propose a procedure to guide the construction of educational courses on technical or scientific subjects with their tools. This procedure is used to enhance an existing educational Web course with a new page showing the simulation of a robot arm Unimation PUMA260.

“…Thus, it is desirable to hide these technical details from the course designer. In addition, the use of a high-level description for simulations, pages, and documents can reduce notably the time needed to build these materials, augment their maintainability, and reduce the time spent in testing [9].…”

Web-Based Simulation (WBS) is a key component for collaborative work in cyberspace between the users who are separated geographically. Traditional WBS nevertheless has limitations in showing the changes made by the participants in the model development in real-time. Common in most frameworks is posting the result after the changes. While this method can be of some benefit for the users of Modeling & Simulation (M&S), it has significant drawbacks for true collaborative applications such as Virtual Training Environment (VTE), Virtual Classrooms, and Virtual Labs.Our framework in contrast provides a shared view of the entire M&S process in real-time to all of its participants in the virtual environment. In addition, it also allows its participants to share editing of the simulation model via Mob-Write Share-Edit techniques (MWSE). The platform supports Advanced Distance Learning (ADL) where the students join the training session, collaboratively work on their task, launch and interact with their model of choice, select their simulation engine for executions, and perform their training tasks.This paper describes a prototype implementation of the framework. It currently supports three different simulation engines while others can easily be integrated in the system. Furthermore, the paper provides several benchmark examples developed in this prototype and added to the repository.

Esta es la versión de autor de la comunicación de congreso publicada en: This is an author produced version of a paper published in: ABSTRACTThis paper describes how to take advantage of Internet services and object technology to solve 2D partial differential equations (PDEs) in a distributed manner. This is accomplished by means of a distributed object oriented continuous simulation language designed by our research group, called OOCSMP, and a Java (and C++) generating compiler for this language (called C-OOL). We also describe a graphical mesh generator, which produces OOCSMP code. The mesh generator may be invoked from the simulation model allowing the generation of domains and meshes during model execution. The simulation of the heating of several moving pieces is shown, in the single machine case, and in the distributed case.
