<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>
The Visual Modeler is a visual modeling tool provided in the
<A href="readme.html" target=_blank>GridSim Toolkit</a>
that enables the user to create simulation models on different Grid testbeds and generate
default Grid Broker source codes in Java.
</p>
<br>
<a name="docs"></a>
<h2>Documentation</h2></A>
<p>For API documentation of the Visual Modeler, please refer to the following sources: </p>
<ul>
<li><A href="./index.html" target=_blank>Visual Modeler API</a></li>
</ul>
<br>
<a name="requirements"></a>
<h2>System Requirements</h2>
<p>Visual Modeler requires the following software to be installed: </p>
<ul>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/">Java 2 SDK version 1.4</a>
</ul>
<br>
<a name="start"></a>
<h2>How to start Visual Modeler</h2>
<p>To start the Visual Modeler, please perform the following steps:
<ol>
<li>Ensure that Java 2 SDK Version 1.4 (or above) is installed.<br><br>
<li>Type the following command:
<pre>In Unix/Linux: java -jar $GRIDSIM/jars/visualmodeler.jar</pre>
<pre>In Windows: java -jar %GRIDSIM%\jars\visualmodeler.jar</pre>
<b>NOTE:</b> $GRIDSIM or %GRIDSIM% is the location of the GridSim Toolkit package.<br>
You should see the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of
the Visual Modeler with a new simulation model as shown below.<br><br>

</ol>
</p>
<br>
<a name="use"></a>
<h2>How to use Visual Modeler</h2>
<p align="left">
Steps:
<ol>
<li>Create a simulation model. There are 3 methods to do so:
<ul>
<li>Use the built-in <A href="#wizard" target=_self>Auto Wizard</a> to create the specified number of users and
resources.
<li>Create a <A href="#filenew" target=_self>new</a> simulation model and add the
<A href="#user" target=_self>users</a> and <A href="#res" target=_self>resources</a>.
<li><A href="#fileopen" target=_self>Open</a> a previously saved
simulation model.</li>
</ul><br>
<li><A href="#filesave" target=_self>Save</a> the simulation model if any changes are made.<br><br>
<li><A href="#generate" target=_self>Generate</a> the source codes.<br><br>
</li>
</ol>
