Abstract: Describes the Visual Simulation Environment (VSE) software product. VSE has been developed under $1.3 million of research funding, primarily from the US Navy, for over a decade. It enables discrete-event, general-purpose, object-oriented, picture-based, component-based, visual simulation model development and execution. This advanced environment can be used for solving complex problems in areas such as air traffic control and space systems, business process reengineering and workflows, complex system design evaluation, computer and communication networks, computer performance evaluation, education and training, health care systems, manufacturing systems, military/combat systems, satellite and wireless communications systems, service systems, supply chain management and transportation systems.

TL;DR: The purpose of DEPIM is to provide a vendor-neutral open representation to support model interchange, which provides an opportunity to improve simulation quality, reduce development costs, and reduce development times.
Reusable component model development approach for parallel and distributed simulation.
TL;DR: A reusable component model framework is proposed and the case study of a radar model developed using the approach has good reusability and it is easy to be used in different simulation platforms and applications.
