Summary:There is a longstanding debate among educators about how best to teach the concepts involved in modeling and simulating discrete event dynamic Systems (DEDS). The goal should be to convey fundamental modeling principles and to examine the implementation of these principles in real settings. One particularly contentious element of the debate deals with the choice of and degree of emphasis on means for implementing simulation models. This paper advocates the use of the event graph modeling formalism as a vehicle for conveying the underlying structure of DEDS models and their implementation.
