SimEvents 3.1

Model and simulate discrete-event systems

Discrete event simulation software model showing four processing components shared by the input traffic of multiclass tasks.

SimEvents® is a discrete-event simulation software that enables simulation of processes, such as mission plans or a manufacturing processes to determine resource requirements or identify bottlenecks. You can also use discrete-event simulation software to model the transactions between components in a system architecture. You can use the architecture model to analyze performance characteristics such as end-to-end latencies, throughput, and packet loss. Libraries of predefined blocks, such as queues, servers, and switches, enable you to represent the components in your process flow diagram or system architecture. You can accurately represent your system by customizing operations such as routing, processing delays, and prioritization.

SimEvents works with Stateflow® to represent systems containing detailed state-transition charts that may produce or be controlled by discrete events. SimEvents and Simulink provide an integrated environment for modeling hybrid dynamic systems containing continuous-time, discrete-time, and discrete event components. Typical examples occur in communications, automotive, electronic systems, sensor networks, and other distributed control applications.
