Performance Measurement of DEVS Dynamic Structure on Forest Fire Spreading Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
--Traditional simulation methodology supports only changes in models’ state variables. Dynamic structure modeling allows to model both changes in state variables and changes in structure and has been applied to different applications. This paper focuses on the performance issue of dynamic structure implemented in the DEVS modeling and simulation environment. Six performance measurement metrics are defined. Measurement results and analysis are provided to evaluate the advantages and limitations of dynamic structure modeling in the context of forest fire spreading simulation.

متن کاملExploring Spatial Partition for Parallel Simulation of DEVS-FIRE
DEVS-FIRE is a cellular space model for simulating wildfire spread based on the DEVS formalism. To apply parallel simulation of the DEVS-FIRE model, we need a way to divide the simulation tasks and assign them to multiple parallel processing nodes. One way to divide the simulation tasks is based on the spatial partition of the cellular space model. Two spatial partition ideas, i.e., a uniform p...
