A menu-driven and graphics-oriented continuous system simulation package

摘要

The design and implementation of a menu-driven and graphics-oriented continuous simulation package for simulating models described by systems of first-order differential equations is discussed. The package was developed to run on MS-DOS-based IBM-compatible personal computers. It provides an interactive environment for defining, updating, saving, loading, and simulating user's models. Moreover, the device-independence feature of the package makes it very adaptable to the rapid advancement in the graphics technology.
