SIMSCRIPT is high-level simulation language with a long history and world-wide acceptance, especially in the field of military simulation. The paper first introduces the SIMSCRIPT world-view and its simulation mechanism, which lay the basis for its success, and next points out the language’s prominent advantages from the viewpoint of a military modeler, and also lists its weaknesses which are yet to be improved, and then proposes suggestions to better utilize the capability of the simulation language, and last discusses the development trend of SIMSCRIPT.
