If you aren't already aware of it, the Agent Modeling Platform provides extensive support for exactly this kind of thing: http://www.eclipse.org/amp/
Personally, I don't believe that UML has rich enough semantics to really capture what's needed in a declarative way. Note that the semantics of UML classes are actually far *weaker* than those provided by EMF, and AMP provides richer semantics still. AMP provides a complete behavioural model, instances of which could probably be mapped automatically to other types of UML artifacts. Would love to see a football simulation in it. But I'm not sure you're ever going to be able to account for outliers like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1SGo4RC1FNM cheers, Miles On 2012-12-21, at 2:31 AM, [email protected] wrote: > Hi Norbert, > > I am a football coach training youth academy players in UK. > Model simultation could be the next big picture for our football game in > order to bring more logic and reusable information. > > I think you should first decide if you are going to use EMF metamodel > technologies or UML. > It is important to decide if you can reuse the existing UML model or if you > need a specific model for football simulation both created with EMF. > If you reuse the existing UML then your audience will be a lot larger, you > will be able to create multiple different diagrams such as class, sequence, > state etc... diagrams but the simulation would be average. > > If you use EMF then the simulation would be better because could be > customized but the audience would be small and only the class diagram is > possible. > Good luck for your project. > Please drop me a link on your architecture decisions. > I am made for football, UML and my Chelsea Team :-) > Thanks, > > Vladimir Varnica > Omondo > > Norbert Bátfai wrote: >> Dear mailing list members, >> >> I would like to call your attention to a new emerging soccer simulation >> model called "Quantum Consciousness Soccer Simulator".
