Introduction to GPSS

摘要

Summary information about key aspects of the simulation programming language GPSS is provided. The class of problems to which GPSS applies especially well is described; commentary on the semantics and syntax of the language is offered; the learning-oriented literature for GPSS is summarized; various GPSS implementations are commented on; the time-sharing networks offering GPSS are cited; and public courses on the language are listed. Finally, the source of a tutorial introduction to the fundamental semantics and syntax of GPSS is given. Copies of this tutorial material, excluded from reproduction here because of page-count limits, will be distributed at the session and provide the basis for the session itself.
