Abstract: A system for providing a runnable computer simulation model comprises a design automation software product for enabling a designer to create a simulation model including interconnected component and/or subsystem models. The system also comprises a simulation content file creation means for creating a simulation content file that includes information describing the simulation model; and a simulation player software product including means for reading the simulation content file. The simulation player software product enables an end user to run the simulation model based upon the information in the simulation content file, but does not allow the end user to add or remove component models, subsystem models or interconnections of the simulation model.

Abstract: Disclosed is a time-division multiplexer for demultiplexing, into individual time slots, time-division multiplexed data in a receive direction received from a network via a trunk unit, and sending the data to a prescribed tributary unit, and for multiplexing, to a prescribed time slot, data in a transmit direction which enters from tributary units and sending the data to the network via the trunk unit. The time-division multiplexer has a trunk bus to which a trunk unit is connected and a tributary bus to which tributary units are connected, and a time-slot interchange unit provided between these buses, wherein interchange of cross-connected time slots on the trunk side and time slots on the tributary side is performed dynamically by the time-slot interchange unit.
