Abstract :
Taylor Enterprise Dynamics (Taylor ED) is an object-oriented software system used to model, simulate, visualize, and monitor dynamic-flow process activities and systems. Atoms are Taylor ED´s smart objects and model building resources. In addition to Taylor ED´s standard atom libraries, users can create new atoms themselves. Taylor ED´s object-oriented architecture provides users with the ability to enhance and increase the functionality of the Taylor ED software system. It also provides simulation experts with a platform on which to create new simulation software programs for specific industries or for specific applications. Historically, Taylor ED has been used to model manufacturing, warehousing, and material handling processes. The software is being used more and more to model, simulate, and visualize service and data flow processes. In addition to these traditional uses, Taylor ED is also used to monitor flow processes in real-time. The paper briefly describes the uses and benefits of Taylor ED
