Equivalence of simulations: a graph theoretic approach

The development shifts the emphasis from model behaviour to model structure. To this end, the concept of a Simulation Graph Model is introduced; structural equivalence and the associated techniques are defined. It is also shown that structural equivalence, as defined in this paper, is a sufficient but not a necessary condition for behavioural equivalence. Finally, Schruben's rules for event reduction are revised, and stated, and proved as theorems| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
