Abstract: Object Event Simulation (OES) is a new Discrete Event Simulation (DES) paradigm combining object-oriented modeling and event-based simulation (with event scheduling). An OES design model, providing a computationally complete description of a DES model, consists of an information design model and a process design model. The information design model specifies the types of objects and events that occur in the process design model, while the process design model defines causal regularities involving events as causes and object state changes as well as follow-up events as effects. We show how to use UML Class Diagrams and extended Event Graphs for making OES information and process models and use the JavaScript-based simulation framework OESjs for implementing them. Like Petri Nets and DEVS, OES has a formal semantics. But while Petrie Nets and DEVS are purely computational formalisms without an ontological foundation, OES is based on the ontological categories of objects, events and causal regularities.
