Object-Oriented Discrete-Event Simulation with Java: A Practical Introduction

Researches and developers of simulation models state that the Java programming language presents a unique and significant opportunity for important changes in the way we develop simulation models today. The most important characteristics of the Java language that are advantageous for simulation are its multi-threading capabilities, its facilities for executing programs across the Web, and its graphics facilities. It is feasible to develop compatible and reusable simulation components that w...
