Abstract

Systems that benefit from the ongoing use of simulation, often require considerable input by the modeller(s) to update and maintain the models. This paper proposes automating the evolution of the modelling process for discrete event simulation (DES) and therefore limiting the majority of the human modeller’s input to the development of the model. This mode of practice could be named Self-Adaptive Discrete Event Simulation (SADES). The research is driven from ideas emerging from simulation model reuse, automations in the modelling process, real time simulation, dynamic data driven application systems, autonomic computing and self-adaptive software systems. This paper explores some of the areas that could inform the development of SADES and proposes a modified version of the MAPE-K feedback control loop as a potential process. The expected outcome from developing SADES would be a simulation environment that is self-managing and more responsive to the analytical needs of real systems.
