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:

    “The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “Maybe we were the blind mechanics of disaster, but you don’t pin the guilt on the scientists that easily. You might as well pin it on M motherhood.... Every man who ever worked on this thing told you what would happen. The scientists signed petition after petition, but nobody listened. There was a choice. It was build the bombs and use them, or risk that the United States and the Soviet Union and the rest of us would find some way to go on living.”
    —John Paxton (1911–1985)

    “The quickness with which all the “stuff” from childhood can reduce adult siblings to kids again underscores the strong and complex connections between brothers and sisters.... It doesn’t seem to matter how much time has elapsed or how far we’ve traveled. Our brothers and sisters bring us face to face with our former selves and remind us how intricately bound up we are in each other’s lives.”
    —Jane Mersky Leder (20th century)

    “It is the mark of a mean, vulgar and ignoble spirit to dwell on the thought of food before meal times or worse to dwell on it afterwards, to discuss it and wallow in the remembered pleasures of every mouthful. Those whose minds dwell before dinner on the spit, and after on the dishes, are fit only to be scullions.”
    —Francis De Sales, Saint (1567–1622)
