Modelling of General Systems
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The MGS (Modelling of General Systems) is a domain-specific language used for specification and simulation of dynamical systems with dynamical structure, developed in the LaMI (laboratory for Computer Methods) at the university of Evry. It is particularly aimed at modelling biological systems.
Its computational model is a generalisation of cellular automata, Lindenmayer systems, Paun systems and other computational formalisms inspired by chemistry/biology. It manipulates collections - sets of positions, filled with some values, in a lattice with a user-defined topology.
