SimPy is a process-based discrete-event simulation language based on standard Python and released under the GNU LGPL.
It provides the modeller with components of a simulation model. These include processes, for active components like customers, messages, and vehicles, and resources, for passive components that form limited capacity congestion points like servers, checkout counters, and tunnels. It also provides monitor variables to aid in gathering statistics.
SimPy can be downloaded from the "SimPy web-site": http://simpy.sourceforge.net.
Simulation model developers are encouraged to share their SimPy modeling techniques with the SimPy community. Please "post a message to the simpy-Users mailing list", mailto:simpy-users@lists.sourceforge.net.
"Subscribe to simpy-users mailing list.", http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/simpy-users
Software developers are encouraged to interface SimPy with other Python-accessible packages, such as GUI, data base or mapping and to share these new capabilities with the community under the GNU GPL.
Feature requests for future SimPy versions should be sent to "Klaus G. Muller", mailto:kgmuller at users.sourceforge.net, or "Tony Vignaux", mailto:vignaux at users.sourceforge.net.
