Abstract :
This paper describes a research and development (R&D) effort entitled Depot Operation Modeling Environment (DOME). The project is sponsored by the Armstrong Laboratory, Logistics Research Division (AL/HRG) located at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. The effort is focused on enabling of groupware technology to support the extension of IDEF modeling techniques to accomplish Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) model construction and associated simulations in a distributed environment. The methodology envisioned enables team participants to enter process data and then be queried for additional data that supports DEVS system decomposition, assigning the entities to components and adding in relevant dynamics
