SIMSCRIPT II.5® Description

SIMSCRIPT II.5 integrated development tools are used worldwide for building portable, high fidelity, large scale simulation and modeling applications with excellent interactive graphical user interfaces and animated graphics.

Typical SIMSCRIPT II.5 applications include

  • Telecommunications
  • Network analysis
  • Transportation
  • Manufacturing
  • Inventory control
  • Health care
  • Military operations, wargaming and logistics planning

SIMSCRIPT II.5 has been used by thousands of organizations. It continues to be used by the FAA, Saudi Aramco, Raytheon, Rolls Royce, the U.S. Army and the U.S. Air Force.

  • SIMSCRIPT II.5 is an easy-to-use and powerful simulation language with English-like syntax.
    In addition to the standard features of general purpose, high level languages, it provides a timing mechanism and concurrent process management. Features like entities, attributes, sets, events, processes and resources facilitate an easy mapping of real world physical processes to computer-based simulation models.

    Entities are user defined objects, which can be dynamically instantiated, scheduled and destroyed during a simulation run. Entities represent components of a real world system being modeled. Their properties are defined by attributes, while processes and events capture their behavior.

    Processes run concurrently, they can activate or interrupt each other and can be queued for limited resources. As simulation time progresses statistical measures of changing quantities, such as queue lengths can be automatically collected and reported. During simulation run a number of checkpoints can be created and simulation can be restarted from any one of them, facilitating multiple "What-If" scenarios.
     

  • SIMSCRIPT II.5 has built-in graphical capabilities that allow representation of entities by animated icons.
    Graphical icons are created off-line with Icon Editor or by importing bitmaps. Users can create realistic graphical representations by displaying a geographical map, airport or factory layout in a background while the entities are displayed in a foreground. Input parameters can be interactively entered through dialog boxes while the model variables can be displayed dynamically using line or bar graphs, trace plots, pie charts, dials and level meters.

  • Input or output of the model can be stored in a database.
    SIMSCRIPT II.5 provides SDBC (SIMSCRIPT database connectivity) APIs for major database systems on the market - Microsoft Access, SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 and IBM Informix.

  • SIMSCRIPT II.5 models are portable across a variety of platforms.
    They are also open and can easily be interfaced with libraries written in C/C++ or FORTRAN.

    SIMSCRIPT II.5 simulation models are built using Simulation Studio, an integrated programming development environment which includes all the necessary tools for building non-graphical and graphical simulation models

    • SIMSCRIPT II.5 compiler and symbolic debugger
    • Graphical editors for icons, graphs and dialog boxes
    • Syntax color coded text editor
    • SDBC - SIMSCRIPT II.5 database connection
    • Automatic project builder and help system
    • Statistical package
    • Online programming manuals

The SIMSCRIPT II.5 software package is fully supported worldwide by CACI. It includes software updates, training and technical support. Jump start model building consultations are also available from experienced simulation specialists. CACI has been the leading simulation solutions provider for more than 45 years.
