Abstract :
A General Purpose Simulation System (GPSS) model was developed for Sinclair Oil Corporation´s private line commulnications network. This network includes sixty terminals connected by company owned and operated microwave circuits and AT&T Telpak Systems. The model was designed to evaluate current networks and to assist in designing future systems. This paper reviews the background, development, and implementation of this project. In addition, other simulation projects are briefly summarized.
