Abstract
As the complexity of simulation objects increases, the manual programming method for developing them is of low efficiency and high requirements. The traditional event graph provides a graphical developing method, but there exists tight coupling and poor reusability with the built simulation objects. According to the problems, this paper proposes a port&event-graph-based method for PDES objects development, which introduces ports into the event graph to decouple the scheduling relationship, to improve the independence of simulation objects. The experimentation shows this method can help improve the development efficiency and the constructed simulation objects have good reusability and are easy to be used.
