Tutorial 5: An introduction to SIMSCRIPT

SIMSCRIPT is a computer language designed for discrete-state simulation. It possesses all the capabilities of FORTRAN plus several powerful features such as dynamic storage allocation and list processing. Features designed specifically for simulation include the ability to describe systems in terms of entities (which are “blocks” of attributes), sets (which are groups of entities) and events (which are “scheduled” subroutines). The benefits of and disadvantages of SIMSCRIPT are briefly compared to GPSS and FORTRAN. The concepts of SlMSCRIPT are illustrated in detail using a plague epidemic example. Other examples will be briefly presented to illustrate the versatility of the language.
