Abstract

The task of business processes is important, relevant and occupies a worthy place in the field of business analysis. There is a large number of general purpose simulation systems, equipped with a detailed interface, statistical processing of simulation results and optimization of objects. The wide possibilities of objects of various types provided by such systems are accompanied by considerable difficulties in their mastering by users interested in business process but not being experts in the field of. In addition, manual construction of object simulation models in the environment can be very time-consuming. The article proposes an approach to the construction of a tool that provides automatic generation of executable simulation model of the business process, designed to run in the selected simulation system, but formed outside this environment. Such a tool can be a program-editor of a business process with the function of exporting a mathematical model of a business process to the executable file of its simulation model. The principal aspects of solving this problem in relation to simulation systems based on the formalisms of queuing networks and Petri nets are considered. A description is given of a functioning business process program-editor focused on using the GPSS World simulation system. The results of its application are demonstrated. The conclusion is made about the possibility and expediency of extending the proposed concept to other objects and simulation systems.
