description

Program generators, for us, are computer programs that produce other computer programs. SIGEM is an expert system program generator that can help in the modeling process of real systems. It is associated with a methodology well adapted to modeling practice. In this paper, we present and compare this methodology with other similar ones. Static models (databases), dynamic models, rule-based expert systems, literal and/or numerical variables, probabilistic uncertainty in data and in functions, dimensioned variables, discrete event simulation, and other related problems can be treated with this methodology. We suggest a systems modeling methodology and a programming tool to increase generality of application and easiness of use.
