Abstract :
The authors introduce some of the modeling techniques used in SLAM II, illustrated with simple examples. SLAM II was the first simulation language which allowed a modeler to formulate a system description using process, event, or continuous world views or any combination of the three. Since its initial release in 1981, SLAM II has undergone continual development and application. Recent enhancements are demonstrated. The following issues are considered: network modeling, the use of discrete event concepts, continuous modeling, material handling movements, and the SLAM II Interactive Execution Environment
