The brief explains the principles of modelling discrete-event systems, as well as the design and applications of GPenSIM. It is based on the author’s lectures that were given on “modeling, simulation, and performance analysis of discrete event systems”. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brief uses GPenSIM to enable the efficient modeling of complex and large-scale discrete-event systems. GPenSIM, which is based on MATLAB\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e, is designed to allow easy integration of Petri net models with a vast number of toolboxes that are available on the MATLAB\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e. The book offers an approach for developing models that can interact with the external environment; this will help readers to solve problems in industrial diverse fields.
