Abstract

`This report describes KBS. a Knowledge-Based Simulation system. The report describes tlie use of SRI, an AI-based knowledge representation system for modelling (e.g., factory organizations), and its interpretation for discrete simulations. KBS provides facilities for interactive model creation and alteration, simulation monitoring and control, graphics display, and selective instrumentation. It also allows the user to define and simulate a system at different levels of abstraction, and to check the cornpleteness and consistency of a model, hence reducing model debugging time.
