Reference > Rule Studio User Interface > Wizards > New Simulation Wizard

This wizard defines a new simulation in Rule Scenario Manager.

To open the New Simulation Wizard, in the File menu select New > Other, open ILOG Rule Studio, open the Rule Scenario Manager category, and click Simulation.

Select Project Page

The Project page is where you select the Java project in which to create the new files. Select a project from the list.

New Simulation File Page

The Simulation File page is where you specify the definition for the simulation to add to a project.

Table 57 New Simulation File Page
Section 
Purpose 
Name 
Enter a name for the simulation. 
Description 
Enter a short description for the simulation. 
Simulation KPI 
Specify a file containing the definition of a simulation KPI. 
Scenario Suites 
Specify the scenario suites to be included in the simulation. 
Report Name 
Enter a name for the simulation report file. 

Specify Configuration File Page

The Configuration File page is where you specify the configuration for a simulation. You can use the system default, choose an existing configuration or create a new one.

Table 58 Configuration File Page
Section 
Purpose 
Use the default configuration 
Select this option to use the system default configuration. 
Choose an existing configuration 
Select this option to use an existing configuration file. 
Create a new configuration 
Select this option to create a new configuration. After you click Next, the wizard will continue with three pages in which you define a new configuration. 

Define New Configuration Pages

If you specified to create a new configuration page above, the Configuration File pages follow, where you define the new configuration. The definition is completed in three pages:

Table 59 New Configuration Page 1
Section 
Purpose 
Name 
Enter a name for the configuration. 
Description 
Enter a short description for the configuration. 
Precision 
Specify the precision of data in a scenario's tests: 
Executor 
Specify an executor class and URL. 

Click Next to open the second page defining a new configuration.

Table 60 New Configuration Page 2
Section 
Purpose 
Input Parameters 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating the input parameters. 
Subcomponents 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating subcomponents (the constituent scenario suites of a simulation and the constituent scenarios of a scenario suite). 
Baseline Reports 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating baseline reports. 

Click Next to open the third and last page defining a new configuration.

Table 61 New Configuration Page 3
Section 
Purpose 
Working Memory 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating the working memory. 
Output Parameters 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating the output parameters. 
Reports 
Specify a databinding class and its URL for translating scenario, scenario suite and simulation reports.
