Simulation Kit is a collection of objects specifically
developed for continuous system modeling and simulation on
NEXTSTEP computers. Used in conjunction with the NEXTSTEP
development environment, the Simulation Kit provides the ideal
conditions for developing and analyzing object-oriented
simulations. Through powerful and easy-to-use tools Simulation Kit serves
the need for Numerical Analysis, Mechanical Engineering,
Electrical Engineering, Thermodynamics, Chemical Engineering and
Control Systems. The object-oriented nature of the Simulation Kit allows
simulation elements to be independently validated. In addition,
structuring, sequencing, and execution of the simulation is
performed by the core objects without direct user intervention.
This means that more time can be spent validating the simulation
rather than debugging it.
The Simulation Kit is the only continuous simulation product
available under NEXTSTEP. The Simulation Kit provides a truly object-oriented modeling
and simulation environment. The Simulation Kit allows sequential or parallel execution of
processes as well as multiple clocks at different rates for
advanced applications. The Simulation Kit is flexible, reliable, reusable, and
user-extensible. The Simulation Kit includes source code and documentation for
nineteen example objects and simulations. Requires NEXTSTEP Release 3.1 or higher. Now shipping in Multi-Architecture Binary (MAB) format.
