MODSIM

from The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (8 July 2008)
MODSIM

   <language> A general-purpose, modular, block-structured
   language from {CACI}, which provides support for
   {object-oriented programming} and {discrete event simulation}.
   It is intended for building large process-based discrete event
   simulation models through modular and object-oriented
   mechanisms similar to those of {Modula-2}.

   MODSIM is descended from {Modula-2} and {Simula}.  It supports
   {multiple inheritance}, {templates}, {reference types},
   {polymorphism}, and {process-oriented simulation} with
   synchronous and asynchronous activities using explicit
   simulation time.

   See also {MODSIM II}, {USAModSim}.
