Abstract

Main aim of this paper is to present our approach for simplify distributed simulation environment design and implementation. We used multiagent system as a basic distribution engine. Agent holds model part, controls simulation process, controls load optimization in distributed system or handles storing data. As a basic modelling tool is used DEVS formalism. Formalism has advantageous properties for use in the distributed simulation environment. For example model described by DEVS formalism has hierarchical structure and it can be simple divided between computation nodes. From the user's view is this formalism relatively simple and transparent. Multiagent system technology together with DEVS formalism allows creating user friendly distributed simulation environment with minimum demands on system's developer.
