Abstract

SIMOBJECT is a portable, model-building framework of objects embedded in a graphical editing environment. This framework facilitates the prototyping of systems as diverse as communications or transportation networks, manufacturing processes and business operations. OBJECT.MGR, the graphical object editor, is used to extend these prototypes and evolve them into detailed applications as more is learned about the system that is being simulated
