Abstract :
AweSim(R) is a totally new general purpose simulation system. AweSim takes advantage of the latest in Windows technology to integrate programs and provide componentware. AweSim includes the Visual SLAM simulation language to build network, subnetwork, discrete event, and continuous models. Network models require no programming yet allow user coded inserts in Visual Basic or C. Discrete event and continuous models can be created using the object oriented technology of Visual Basic, C or Visual C++ and can be combined with network models. The paper demonstrates the process of using AweSim´s componentware, describes examples of user interfaces that allow integration with other applications and presents examples of models used for problem solving using AweSim
