“…Similar to other solutions [19,10], these languages use a neutral action code in order to express functions that we know by construction are indeed DEVS transition or output functions. Users can define several types of DEVS functions in order to not only reuse functionality but also to guarantee correctness.…”

Visual environments for the modelling and simulation of complex, software-intensive systems are increasingly popular. While visual languages have many advantages, they may not be appropriate to render all details of a Discrete EVent system Specification (DEVS) model. Textual may be more appropriate, both to completely describe all details of a DEVS model (i.e., the content of transition and output functions), and to make the specification independent of the implementation platform (i.e., simulation implementation language).In this paper, we propose two textual notations that are used as part of an integrated modelling and simulation environment for the Parallel DEVS formalism. Both notations allow the specification of DEVS functions by means of neutral action code. DEVSPro uses Python-like textual syntax and supports the full power of Parallel DEVS. From this neutral specification, simulator-specific code is synthesized. DEVSLang supports blended textual/visual modelling. It is more restricted in expressiveness to match the limited expressiveness of visual notations. For example, the sequential states in an Atomic model must be explicitly enumerated.Visual DEVSLang models are transformed to their textual form in order to carry out syntactic and semantic checks. Possible detected errors are fed back to the visual modelling environment allowing the modeller to make changes directly in the source model. DEVSLang models are further translated automatically to DEVSPro models to allow for possible combination with DEVSPro models and subsequent analysis and simulation.

Large scale geospatial simulation projects require multidisciplinary efforts by actors with highly variable skills and domains of expertise. Subject matter experts, modelers, developers, analysts, and decision makers must collaborate closely to model a real‐world system, simulate it, analyze its results and disseminate them. Simulation environments, tailored to business scenarios, can provide the necessary support to facilitate their collaboration throughout the simulation lifecycle. Commercial modeling and simulation software can provide an environment to facilitate simulation studies for users but, they tend to be narrowly scoped. This research focuses on the different categories of users and introduces four business processes that carry those users across the simulation lifecycle. These concepts are translated into an architecture that facilitates the operationalization of geospatial simulation environments using modeling and simulation as a service and Discrete Event Systems Specification.
