Activity-based Discrete Event Simulation of Spatial Production Systems: application to fisheries
Résumé
Relevant decision-making indicators and quantitative assessments are very strategic in management and production systems. In this paper, we present a modular and generic object framework using the Discrete EVent system Simulation Specification (DEVS) and the activity concept. We plan to simulate coastal fishery policies in the aim of improving harvesting and the management of fisheries. This work is a first step in employing Cellular Automata Models (CAM) with DEVS to design useful simulators in fisheries which are modelled as spatial production system.
