  • Abstract
    FreeSML is a Java-based simulation language, providing support for process-oriented and event-oriented simulation, along with limited support for continuous-variable simulation. The core simulation engine is indirectly derived from that of Silk 1.3, and the language´s public interface is based heavily on those of Silk and SSJ. Unlike earlier languages, FreeSML was developed with the specific intent that it be released as an open-source package, and has been released under the Free Software Foundation´s Lesser General Public License
