Resumen:
We introduce an extension of the classic Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) formalism that includes stochastic features. Based on the use of the Probability Spaces theory, the STochastic DEVS specification (STDEVS) provides a formal framework for modeling and simulation ofgeneral non deterministic discrete event systems. The main theoretical properties of STDEVS are shown. We illustrate the use of the formalism for performance analysis in computer systems and data networks, an application in which the inclusion of stochastic components is vital.
