Abstract
Combat system modeling generally includes two aspects: structure and behavior. Structural modeling is to build the structure of entities and their internal and external static relationships. Behavioral modeling aims at the typical working processes. The simulation modeling definition language (SMDL) of Simulation Modeling Platform (SMP2) can describe system structure well, but it is difficult to support behavioral modeling. The modeling and simulation tool named Ptolemy is able to support the description of system behavior, but it lacks effective support for structural modeling. For this reason, the goal of the paper is to explore a mechanism to combine structural and behavioral modeling, which can not only effectively support the architecture design but also support the expression of system behaviors. As a proof of concept, we extend the SMDL by adding the synchronous data flow (SDF) elements, and use this new language, namely, the extended Simulation Model Definition Language (ESMDL), to specify a radar system for both of structural and behavioral modeling.
