ASIM (Automated Interactive Simulation Modeling System) VAX Version User's Manual.
Abstract
The Automated Interactive Simulation Modeling System (AISIM) provides the user with the ability to do high level simulation of complex operational and distributed data processing systems. The purpose of this manual is to provide the AISIM user with a comprehensive guide for the use of the AISIM system on a VAX 11/780 computer. This manual is a straightforward reference document for the AISIM user. Chap 1 introduces this document, detailing the organization of this document, the document conventions and applicable documents. Chap 2 is an overview of the concepts used in modeling and simulation of systems using AISIM. Chap 3 contains a detailed description of the AISIM modeling constructs. Chap 4 describes the interface between the AISIM software and the host computer's time sharing system. Chap 5 through 10 present information of the various system user interface levels, including detailed descriptions of prompts and commands. Chap 11 discusses AISIM simulation results and how to interpret them. Appendix A presents operational procedures and other information which is useful for the user to know but not mandatory for using the system. Appendix B lists simulation error messages with a description of their meaning. Appendix C is a glossary of AISIM terms. Appendix D contains a detailed description of the message routing submodel. The tool is designed for the operations analyst or engineer as a workbench for investigating the impact of system alternatives.
