Sage Journals: Discover world-class research

Abstract

This paper presents the develop ment of an automatic program ming (AP) system for simulat ing prelaunch activities. The Automatic Network Program ming System (ANPS) is a tool to assist the modeler define a problem and then to automati cally generate the corresponding code in the target simulation language.
