This paper presents a conceptual framework for the modelling and simulation of properties, interactions and processes of social systems based on computational templates using discrete event system specification (DEVS) formalism and OMG Systems Modelling Language (SysML) diagrams. No antecedents of this combination were found in the literature, and so this is one of the contributions of this paper. Additionally, this article explains how the principles and rules of SysML can be applied to the analysis of social systems. An example of the proposed framework based on a basic Agent_Zero model is shown. The conceptual framework was built based on a critical literature review, and included new additional elements to create a complete but simple conceptual framework. The codes for the simulations were written in Python 3.
Este artículo presenta un marco conceptual para el modelado y la simulación de las propiedades, las interacciones y los procesos de los sistemas sociales basado en plantillas computacionales usando el formalismo de especificaciones de sistemas para eventos discretos (DEVS) y el lenguaje de modelado de sistemas de OMG (SysML). No existen en la literatura antecedentes previos de esta combinación, y esto constituye una de las contribuciones de este artículo. Adicionalmente, este artículo explica cómo los principios y las reglas de SysML pueden ser utilizados para el análisis de sistemas sociales. Se presenta un ejemplo del marco conceptual propuesto basado en el modelo de Agent_Zero. El marco conceptual se construyó a partir de una revisión crítica de literatura, incluyendo nuevos elementos para un marco conceptual completo pero simple. Los códigos para las simulaciones se escribieron en Python 3.
