Collecting the work of the foremost scientists in the field, Discrete-Event Modeling and Simulation: Theory and Applications presents the state of the art in modeling discrete-event systems using the discrete-event system specification (DEVS) approach. It introduces the latest advances, recent extensions of formal techniques, and real-world examples of various applications.
The book covers many topics that pertain to several layers of the modeling and simulation architecture. It discusses DEVS model development support and the interaction of DEVS with other methodologies. It describes different forms of simulation supported by DEVS, the use of real-time DEVS simulation, the relationship between DEVS and graph transformation, the influence of DEVS variants on simulation performance, and interoperability and composability with emphasis on DEVS standardization. The text also examines extensions to DEVS, new formalisms, and abstractions of DEVS models as well as the theory and analysis behind real-world system identification and control. To support the generation and search of optimal models of a system, a framework is developed based on the system entity structure and its transformation to DEVS simulation models. In addition, the book explores numerous interesting examples that illustrate the use of DEVS to build successful applications, including optical network-on-chip, construction/building design, process control, workflow systems, and environmental models.
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.

Dr. Wainer is vice president of publications for the Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS), the special issues editor of SIMULATION: Transactions of the Society for Modeling and Simulation International, an associate editor of JDMS: The Journal of Defense Modeling and Simulation, and an editorial board member of Wireless Networks and the International Journal of Simulation & Process Modelling. He has been a recipient of the IBM Eclipse Innovation Award, the Society for Modeling and Simulation International Leadership award, Carleton University’s Research Achievement Award, and the First Bernard P. Zeigler DEVS Modeling and Simulation Award. His research focuses on discrete event modeling and simulation, parallel and distributed simulation, and real-time systems.
Pieter J. Mosterman is a senior research scientist at MathWorks, where he works on core modeling, simulation, and code generation features of Simulink®. Dr. Mosterman is also an adjunct professor in the School of Computer Science at McGill University. He designed HyBrSim, which was awarded the IMechE Donald Julius Groen Prize in 2003, and the Electronics Laboratory Simulator, which was nominated for The Computerworld Smithsonian Award by Microsoft Corporation in 1994. Dr. Mosterman also received the SCS Distinguished Service Award. He is an editorial advisory board member of SIMULATION: Transactions of the Society for Modeling and Simulation International and an associate editor of the International Journal of Control and Automation, the International Journal of Critical Computer-Based Systems, and Applied Intelligence.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
