Simulation Configuration and UI modeling

This chapter discusses the components as follows

• SimulationConfig stereotype
  «SimulationConfig» and the SimulationConfig stereotypes as a model-based execution configuration through the «stereotype» SimulationConfig.
  
  
• Simulation log
  Recording all event occurrences during simulation of a Simulation Configuration.
  
  
• Simulation time and simulation clock
  Enabling Cameo Simulation Toolkit to obtain the amount of time spent on simulating a model from a simulation clock.
  
  
• Automatic start of active objects
  An active object whose Classifier is an active Class.
  
  
• UI modeling diagram simulation
  UI components supporting the UI modeling diagram simulation.
  
  
• ImageSwitcher and ActiveImage
  ImageSwitcher as a powerful animation tool and «ActiveImage» attributes.
  
  
• Time series chart
  Displaying plots of runtime values with respect to simulation time and its properties.
  
  
• Timeline chart
  Allowing you to see the active States of an object or a property during simulation or the Activities simulated in an object.
  
  
• Histogram
  Displaying the density of the underlying distribution of data and estimating the probability density function of underlying variables.
  
  
• Nested UI Configuration stereotype
  Creating complex UI mockup consisting of multiple UI Configs.
  
  
• Reusable UI Mockup
  Improving the flexibility in user interface modeling from typing the property using the UI component.
  
  
• CSV export
  Exporting simulation results to a CSV file.
  
  
• Nested property selection for configurations
  Supporting nested property selection for configurations, e.g., Time series charts, Timelines, Sequence diagram generator, and CSV export.
  
  
• Web Server for Cameo Simulation Toolkit
  Exporting, opening and using UI mockups, and controlling a model simulation on a web browser on any remote devices.
