This paper introduces user intervention to control simulation states during the execution of a simulation for military engagements. In an engagement simulation, it covers both a discrete event system and a continuous state system. Thus a system for the engagement simulation can have numerous simulation states, because there are lots of factors to decide states of an engagement that are derived during an execution of the simulation (e. g. detection probability, moving speed, moving path, and so on). It means both a result and progression of simulations are important outputs. Configuration of an engagement simulation scenario and expectation of simulation states, though, is hindered by the number of generate-able states. In order to solve the obstacle, the engagement simulation system should be controllable by user intervention during a simulation execution. This paper is to define objects of user intervention, and to design control processes of defined objects.

3D simulation programs or games on a smart phone and a personal computer have often employed 3D graphic processing techniques and 3D graphical views. However, the user interfaces in those 3D programs have sticked to take a typical 2D style user interface and thus the combination of a 2D user interface view and a 3D simulation view give us a mismatched sense. Since a 2D user interface has been based on the windows controls, it causes sometime DC conflicts between a simulation view and an interface view. Therefore, we will implement the UI developing tool which can be inserted into the pipeline structure for the development of a 3D simulation software and also follows the view-handler design pattern in Microsoft windows system. It will provide various graphical effects such as the deformation of UI depending on the view direction of simulation view and the sitting pose of user. This developing tool gives the natural user interface which heightens the sense of unity with a given 3D simulation view.

Traditional system-oriented measures are no longer adequate to describe the availability perceived by the user. In this paper we investigate the service availability model and the user behavior graph. And we propose the simulation model, which determines the sevice availability considering user model, system model and service model at the same time. Through the example, we show how to construct the UBG of user model, system model and service model. And we investigate the effect of the parameters of system model and UBG on the service availability.

Robot simulation technique is essential not only for robot developers to design robotic systems but also for robot operators to predict robot motion, configure system layout, and increase robot ability. However, commercial robot simulation software such as ROBCAD, IGRIP, and so on are expensive and sometimes they are difficult to customize into industrial purpose programming for users. Therefore, user-based simulation programming is required to magnify the efficiency of robot system. In this paper, we show the methodology of developing user-based robot simulation programming using PC(personal computer), Open-Inventor, and Windows Programming. The developed programming has been successfully applied to welding robot systems of a shipbuilding industry. Also, the methodology presented here can be easily extended to simulate manipulators of other typed mechanism on user's PC.

The realistic Visual Effects using fluid simulation in 3D computer graphics are operated as important factors to improve the quality of images. The process of creating realistic motions of water, fire, explosion by controlling each property of fluid is called fluid simulation. In general, the creation of a fluid simulation concentrates on the main simulation work phase, however an effective method for initial set up is important for the main simulation work. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors involved in the initial emission motion and shape of fluid and propose methods that can efficiently apply this into the initial set up. For the process of the research, first, problems are raised based on related researches, and second, two experiments, 'Dynamic Fluid Emitter Creation' and 'User Design Type Emission Velocity Solution', are conducted for more effective fluid simulation. Through this research, the effective fluid simulation of initial set up phase will be suggested through the user design-type emission control solutions.

A knowledge based hybrid simulation environment has been established which supports the simulation procedure from the modeling step to the experimentation step by providing various tools, query, and advisory. The knowledge base in the established environment uses the If-Then Rule to transfer the fact input from the user to the act for the execution of the simulation process. Simulation non-experts are the user target and non-specific area is the application target.

Since large and small scale photovoltaic(PV) systems have been commercialized in many countries, it is necessary to assess the effects of PV systems on the electric power system. For this, the development of accurate simulation model of PV arrays is very important. PSCAD/EMTDC, a widely used simulation tool for analyzing the transient behavior of electrical apparatus and networks, does not have a standard model of a PV array. Therefore in order to simulate the PV array, users have to develop their own simulation model. However, the block-diagram-based model is very complicated, and it is hard to modify the model parameters. In this study, we develop the user-defined model of a PV array by using the Design Editor, which is provided by PSCAD program. The mathematical model of a PV array and the method to determine the parameters of nonlinear I-V equation are implemented in a Fortran code. The graphical user interface provides the users with easy and simple way to modify the PV array parameters and simulation conditions. In order to help the users, this model also provides the parameters of 10 commercial PV arrays.

In this paper, we have developed a performance analysis tool for communication networks called COMNAS. COMNAS analyses the performance of wide area networks such as Korea Educational Network and Korea Research Environment Open Network which include local area networks such as Ethernet and Token Ring. COMNAS consists of model constructor, simulation implementor, output analyzer and user interface. Attributes of communication networks for modeling either have default values or are entered by user as object units, and implementation of simulation is automatically proceeded by user interface. Ouput results obtained by COMNAS are the status of node, link and entire network such as mean message transmission delay, throughput, utilization, and so on, and they can be selectively obtained upon the request of the user.

Development of complex discrete event simulators requires cooperation between domain experts and modeling experts who involve the development. With the cooperation the domain experts derive user requirement and modeling experts transform the requirement to a simulation model. This paper proposes a method for consistency verification of simulation model in DEVS formalism against the user requirement in UML diagrams. It also presents an automated tool, called VeriDEVS, which implements the proposed method. Inputs of VeriDEVS are three UML diagrams, namely use case, class and sequence diagrams, and DEVS Graph, all in Visio; outputs of a verification result is represented in PowerPoint files.

We present an intelligent forging simulator AFDEX. The intelligent forging simulator is determined by the adaptive and optimal mesh generation technique and many intelligent application-oriented special functions which minimize the user-intervention during forging simulation. Of course, the solution accuracy should be optimized in the intelligent simulation. We have developed AFDEX to meet the requirement on intelligent simulation. Its characteristics are introduced with the help of typical application examples.
