ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a synchronous distributed simulation apparatus having a simulation supervising device which supervises a simulation device, and the simulation device which performs a synchronous simulation under supervision of the simulation supervising device, in which the simulation supervising device comprises counting means for counting time in simulation, time width setting means for setting a time width of simulation for each time zone where facilities are operated in a manufacturing process which is an object of the simulation in accordance with the time counted by the counting means, and transmitting means for transmitting data showing the time width set by the time width setting means to the simulation device, and the simulation device comprises receiving means for receiving the data showing the time width transmitted by the transmitting means in the simulation supervising device, discrete-event simulation means for simulating the manufacturing process in which change of a state may be modeled to discretely occur, and controlling means for performing simulation by the discrete-event simulation means with the time width of simulation according to the data showing the time width received by the receiving means.
