Abstract

We have proposed and implemented the language CoJava, which offers both the advantages of simulation-like process modeling in Java, and the capabilities of true decision optimization. We will demonstrate the modeling methodology and implementation techniques, following an optimization application example.

By design, the syntax of CoJava is identical to the programming language Java, extended with special constructs to (1) make a non-deterministic choice of a numeric value, (2) assert a constraint, and (3) designate a program variable as the objective to be optimized.
