This assessment is intended to provide a general survey of the strengths and weaknesses of approaching a simulation problem using a workbench-style tool versus approaching that same problem with source code, a simulation server and class libraries (which, along with some quick-start wizards and design tools, characterizes Sage®). This paper describes the philosophy, architectures and key features of a new .Net-based simulation environment called Sage®. Sage® is comprised of a simulation executive, a set of class libraries and some tools built on top of Microsoft’s .Net platform. It was built to take advantage of the object-oriented flavor and extensive integration plumbing ingrained in the .Net framework. It supports “active entity”, “block-based”, “workflow-oriented” and several other types of simulation architectures in both the discrete-time and continuous domains. And it enables developers to approach their simulation frameworks or applications in a wide range of languages including such inexpensive and available languages as C# and VB.Net.
