Tools for DEVS modeling, simulation and 3D visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cell-DEVS is an extension of the DEVS formalism which combines DEVS with Cellular Automata. It is particularly useful for defining spaces by decomposing them into individual cells. The CD++ Toolkit enables one to model and simulate a real or artificial system using either DEVS or Cell-DEVS. Although it is provided with a Modeler tool, this permits only 2D visualization of the simulation. This paper focuses upon two efforts to produce integrate DEVS simulations developed with the CD++ tool with 3D visualizations using Blender, an opensource 3D visualization software.
