Abstract
Functional languages are useful for some types of simulation programming because they offer a clean, high-level programming style with powerful features such as higher-order functions and lazy evaluation. However, since functional languages are not specialized for simulation, they lack the powerful tools offered in simulation languages. In this paper we propose a set of tools to support queueing simulation in the functional language Haskell. The tools are applied to three examples.
