ABSTRACT

The software R-TRANSFORM converts a conventional simulation model into a simulation model of the same system including one or more computers that apply the simulation model during the system operation in order to anticipate the near future and - according to the anticipation - to enhance the system efficiency. Simulation programming tools enable their users to describe the simulated system but not to program what should happen in the computer: the description is then automatically converted into the computer code. R-TRANSFORM enables an automatic nesting of one description of the simulated system into the other one, so that the model nesting is safe against a possible programming error that mixes both the descriptions. Simple applications of nesting of models are mentioned.
