Behavior of Coupled DEVS - View1: Total States = States * Elapsed Times

View1: Total States = States * Elapsed Times

Given a coupled DEVS model, its behavior is described as an atomic DEVS model

where

  • and are the input event set and the output event set, respectively.
  • is the partial state set where is the total state set of component (Refer to View1 of Behavior of DEVS), where is the set of non-negative real numbers.
  • is the initial state set where is the total initial state of component .
  • is the time advance function, where is the set of non-negative real numbers plus infinity.Given ,
     ta(s)= \min\{ ta_i(si) - t_{ei}| i \in D\}.


  • is the external state function. Given a total state where, and input event, the next state is given by

where


(s_i', t_{ei}')=
\begin{cases}
(\delta_{ext}(s_i, t_{ei}, x_i),0) & \text{if } (x, x_i) \in C_{xx}\\
(s_i, t_{ei}) & \text{otherwise}.
\end{cases}

Given the partial state, let denote the set of imminent components. The firing component which triggers the internal state transition and an output event is determined by

  • is the internal state function. Given a partial state, the next state is given by

where


(s_i', t_{ei}')=
\begin{cases}
(\delta_{int}(s_i),0) & \text{if } i = i^*\\
(\delta_{ext}(s_i, t_{ei}, x_i),0) & \text{if } (\lambda_{i^*}(s_{i^*}), x_i) \in C_{yx}\\
(s_i, t_{ei}) & \text{otherwise}.
\end{cases}
  • is the output function. Given a partial state ,
     \lambda(s)=
\begin{cases}
\phi &\text{if } \lambda_{i^*}(s_{i^*})=\phi \\
C_{yy}(\lambda_{i^*}(s_{i^*})) &\text{otherwise}.
\end{cases}

Famous quotes containing the words total, states, elapsed and/or times:

    Both the man of science and the man of art live always at the edge of mystery, surrounded by it. Both, as a measure of their creation, have always had to do with the harmonization of what is new with what is familiar, with the balance between novelty and synthesis, with the struggle to make partial order in total chaos.... This cannot be an easy life.
    J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904–1967)

    The line that I am urging as today’s conventional wisdom is not a denial of consciousness. It is often called, with more reason, a repudiation of mind. It is indeed a repudiation of mind as a second substance, over and above body. It can be described less harshly as an identification of mind with some of the faculties, states, and activities of the body. Mental states and events are a special subclass of the states and events of the human or animal body.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    ... most Southerners of my parents’ era were raised to feel that it wasn’t respectable to be rich. We felt that all patriotic Southerners had lost everything in defense of the South, and sufficient time hadn’t elapsed for respectable rebuilding of financial security in a war- impoverished region.
    Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 1 (1962)

    Nothing in our times has become so unattractive as virtue.
    Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
