Abstract
A key requirement for carrying out a meaningful discussion of any complex topic is a collection of clearly defined concepts that map onto the various facets of the domain of interest. Within the context of formulating models of discrete-event dynamic systems, this requirement translates into the need for a framework that provides a consistent and coherent way of viewing and describing the mechanisms that give rise to behaviour.
