Tecnomatix Plant Simulation: Modeling and Programming by Means of Examples

This book systematically introduces the development of simulation models as well as the implementation and evaluation of simulation experiments with Tecnomatix Plant Simulation. It deals with all users of Plant Simulation, who have more complex tasks to handle. It also looks for an easy entry into the program. Particular attention has been paid to introduce the simulation flow language SimTalk and its use in various areas of the simulation. The author demonstrates with over 200 examples how to combine the blocks for simulation models and how to deal with SimTalk for complex control and analysis tasks. The contents of this book ranges from a description of the basic functions of the material flow blocks to demanding topics such as the realization of a database-supported warehouse control by using the SQLite interface or the exchange of data by using XML, ActiveX, COM or DDE.

本書系統地介紹了使用Tecnomatix Plant Simulation開發模擬模型以及實施和評估模擬實驗的方法。它針對所有需要處理較複雜任務的Plant Simulation用戶，並提供了一個簡單入門的方式。特別關注的是介紹模擬流程語言SimTalk及其在模擬的各個領域中的應用。作者通過200多個示例演示了如何組合模擬模型中的模塊以及如何使用SimTalk進行複雜的控制和分析任務。本書的內容從描述物料流動模塊的基本功能到諸如使用SQLite接口實現基於數據庫的倉庫控制，或使用XML、ActiveX、COM或DDE進行數據交換等複雜主題。
