Abstract

COSMOS is a new simulation language for description of continuous, discrete, or combined continuous discrete models. COSMOS coded continuous simulation programs may look quite similar to CSSL type language coded programs. As a matter of fact, the COSMOS language definition even constitutes a superset of CSSL since many additional structuring elements are incorporated, e.g. for comfortable modelling of piecewise continuous models and variable structure systems. COSMOS coded discrete simulation programs look similar to SIMULA programs, and not similar to GPSS programs. In addition to the continuous and discrete simulation features, newelements have been incorporated into the language definition to allow for coding combined continuous and discrete systems as well. The model and experiment description are totally seperated. A powerful set of experiment description statements is available.
