Hybrid simulation involves the use of multiple simulation paradigms, and is becoming an
increasingly common approach to modelling modern, complex systems. Despite growing …

In this paper we introduce and motivate a conceptualization framework for agent-based
social simulation, MAIA: Modelling Agent systems based on Institutional Analysis. The MAIA …

This paper explores the possibility and plausibility of develo** a hybrid simulation method
combining agent-based (AB) and system dynamics (SD) modeling to address the case study …

In this paper, the spotlight is directed towards studying the handling capacity of pure Ro-Ro
terminals, especially the new terminal of Norvik port. To this end, a simulation model based …

Modeling and simulation techniques are becoming an important research method for
investigating operational and organizational systems. Many literatures report different …

Le Havre Port Authority is putting into service a multimodal hub terminal with massified
hinterland links (trains and barges) in order to restrict the intensive use of roads, to achieve a …

In simulation projects, it is generally beneficial to have a toolset that allows following a more
formal approach to system analysis, model design and model implementation. Such formal …

This paper aims at contributing to fill the lack of methods specifically conceived for
addressing the analysis and verification of nonfunctional requirements. In particular, the …

International seaborne trade rose significantly during the past decades. This created the
need to increase capacity of existing marine container terminals to meet the growing …

Abstract Model-driven development (MDD) is an approach for supporting the development
of software systems, in which high-level modeling artifacts drive the production of time and …
