Helps analysts, software engineers, and programmers developing medium to large complex systems design and test systems and alternative concepts more efficiently by explaining the construction and use of process simulation using object-oriented modeling and programming. Details both fundamental and implementation aspects of simulation modeling using the C++ programming language, and offers many case studies to demonstrate the dynamic behavior of operating systems, computer networks, real-time systems, and other computer-related systems. The accompanying 3.5" disk for either DOS or Windows includes a simulation package, case studies, and a language translator for the simulation language. Instructor support is available for use in the classroom. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
