Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to provide an introduction to object-oriented techniques. The basics of Petri nets, object-oriented design, and the need for a graphical Petri net simulator are presented. Advantages of implementing such a system using object-oriented techniques over procedure-oriented techniques are discussed. These include direct problem to solution mapping, reduced development time, and increased resiliency to change.
Keywords: object-oriented implementation (of) parallel system evaluation tool, (a) graphical net simulation; procedure-oriented technique; change resiliency.
