SimPack/Sim++ Simulation Toolkit
SimPack/Sim++ Simulation Toolkit
SimPack is a collection of C++ tools (routines and programs) for computer simulation. The purpose of
SimPack is to provide people with a "starting point" for simulating a system. The intention is that people
will view what exists as a template (or "seed") and then "grow a simulation program." SimPack tools
have been used for six years of teaching computer simulation at the under- graduate (senior) and graduate
levels. Also, many people have taken the basic tools and created more complex research applications
with lots of options specific to a particular area.
Sim++ is a library of routines for implementing discrete event simulations, built by Robert Cubert and
Paul Fishwick of the University of Florida. Priority queues are integral to such simulations, and Sim++
contains implementations of linked, binary, leftist, and calendar heaps. If you need a priority queue to
control a simulation, check out ftp://bikini.cis.ufl.edu/oub/simdigest/tools . It also contains random
number generators for a variety of different distributions, including uniform, exponential, and normal.
Fishwick's book Simulation Model Design & Execution: Building Digital Worlds describes model design
using SimPack.
