Abstract

This paper introduces the concept of reconfigurable simulation models and describes how these models can be used to support simulation-based design. As in object-oriented programming, a reconfigurable model consists of a separate interface and multiple implementations. An AND-OR tree represents which implementations can be bound to each interface. From the resulting model space, a designer can quickly select the simulation model that is most appropriate for the current design stage. We conclude the paper with an example that illustrates the XML-based implementation of reconfigurable models.
