Computer simulation is the discipline of designing a model of an actual or theoretical physical system, executing the model on digital computer, and analysing the execution output. Of late, simulation has been influenced by an increasingly popular phenomenon - the World Wide Web or WWW. Java is a programming language for the WWW that brings a high level of dynamism to Web applications. Java makes it particularly suitable to represent applications on the Web. It has created an illusion of machine independence and interoperability for many applications. Therefore WWW can be considered as an environment for providing modelling and simulation applications. Research in the area of Web-based simulation is developing rapidly as WWW programming tools develop. Bulk of this research is focused only on discrete event simulation. This dissertation introduces dynamic system simulation on the Web. It presents and demonstrates a Web-based simulation software (SimDynamic), entirely developed in Java, for modelling, simulating, and analysing dynamic systems with 3D animated illustration, wherever applicable. SimDynamic can also be used as a non Web-based application on a PC. In both cases, it supports complete model creation and modification capabilities along with graphical and numerical output. Detail design and functional ability of SimDynamic are provided. Some real world systems have been modeled using SimDynamic and results are presented. Characteristic features of the software are discussed from software engineering point of view. Complete source code and installation instructions are included. Current SimDynamic limitations and potential customization and expansion issues are explored.
