salabim: a new discrete event simulation package

[Ruud van der Ham]

The package salabim is based on the process description methodology in
which processes can be activated, held and passivated.The package supports
queues, resources and a very powerful concept of states, which behave a
little bit like events.
Statistical data collection on queues, resources and states is
automatically enabled. The collected data can be shown with matplotlib or
exported to R.
Animation, which runs parallel to the simulation is one of the most
important features of salabim.

See www.salabim.org for links to the github page with many examples, the
manual and contact information.

salabim is also available on PyPI.
