Alternative Approaches in Simulation Technique:
Methods and Applications (code: ALT)

For many years in simulation technique the time domains analysis was dominating. Primary purpose was to analyze some dynamic nonlinear behavior, and solutions in the time domain played the major and only role, based on classical state space descriptions (in case of continuous processes) or on classical process flow descriptions (in case of discrete event processes).
Today with the help of increased computer power and algebraic and symbolic software tools alternative approaches and solutions can be introduced, supporting or replacing classical time domain analysis.
This section will discuss such alternative modeling and simulation approaches, e.g. cellular automata, pure symbolic or semi-symbolic approaches, variational principles, Markov chains, - in comparison with the classical time domain analysis.
It is intended to have introductory papers to alternative methods and application papers showing the benefits of such approaches - any applications are welcome
