A one-stop resource on advances in DEVS theory, applications, and methodology, this volume offers a sampling of the best research in the area, a broad picture of the DEVS landscape, and trend-setting applications enabled by the DEVS approach. It provides the basis for future research discoveries and encourages the development of new applications.

 

The manuscript:

 

- Employs the discrete-event system specification (DEVS) as a unifying framework for computational modeling and as a formal foundation for model-driven engineering 

- Introduces the theory of discrete-event modeling and simulation 

- Shows how DEVS tools are increasingly used in manufacturing modeling, systems biology, and more 

- Covers a broad spectrum of applications that highlight successful DEVS use 

- Contains a number of chapters on DEVS standardization 

- Incorporates contributions from the world's leading experts, including Bernard P. Zeigler, the creator of the DEVS formalism
