Data interchange between different simulation software applications

Abstract

This paper deals with a data interchange approach between simulation models created by different software applications. It describes also data interchange between simulation software and business information system, concretely Microsoft Dynamics NAV. The aim of the paper is to present and describe very simply way how data can be exchanged between different applications without using any special programming framework. It was proven that this data interchange can be processed by using any spreadsheet application. In our case was chosen Microsoft Office Excel as it is the most favorite program in this category. This paper describes the final phase of the research where the new methodology for data interchange was presented.
