Abstract

This paper presents a modeling proposal for the definition of Discrete Event Simulation (DES) models based on the set of artifacts proposed by (Robinson, 2014). It focuses on the realization of the Model Design artifact through the definition of a textual modeling language. This language is intended to support the constructors and logic related to the DES model prior to the implementation of the computational model in specific simulation software. As a result, a software tool is presented as an Editor of the proposed language. Such an editor has been developed as a Java-based textual modeling tool that enables the creation of DES models based on the proposed language. It also allows validating the models edited following the DES paradigm through the language's constraints.
