Abstract
This manual gives a complete documentation for Demos, a
Simula-hosted, process-based, discrete event simulation language. Demos
extends Simula by providing several new process synchronisations, unobtrusive data
collection, random number generation with guaranteed well-spread seeds,
tracing and automatic reports. Demos is coded entirely in Simula and is
running on DEC 10, DEC 20, IBM 370, UNIVAR 1100, Cyber and ICL
hardwares.
Since Demos is process-based, it is particularly well-suited to computer
system and computer network modelling, and for the specification and
design of systems software.
A complete listing of Demos and some twenty programs and their outputs
are given as appendices.
The Demos system is available from the author.
