I would always try to use the language that is provided by the best modeling and simulation tool (or library, if you like) to do the job for me. And this question can really only be answered by taking into account what kinds of models you want to implement. Continuous (e.g. ODEs), discrete (e.g. StateCharts, Petri Nets), or a combination (i.e. a hybrid model, as can be implemented with Simulink+StateFlow)? There are various tools for each kind of model. Another important aspect would be the domain in which you are working. Simulink has pretty extensive libraries for electrical engineering, finance, or computational biology (most of them are included in additional packages, though) - if you work in one of those fields, there might simply be no better (i.e. complete, valid) component library. The same goes for other commercial simulation packages, such as <a href="http://www.xjtek.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">AnyLogic</a>, <a href="http://www.arenasimulation.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Arena</a>, etc. There might also be some open-source simulation tools, depending on your modeling problem. Finally, you might prefer a specific programming language over another, and you might have additional requirements, e.g. support for <ul> <li>Optimization (of model parameters)</li> <li>Validation</li> <li>Output analysis (statistics, plots, statistical tests)</li> <li>Support for parallel and distributed simulation</li> <li>Model checking</li> <li>...</li> </ul> So I'm currently working with Java with the well-known advantages - reasonably fast, good support for multi-threading, relatively simple to use etc. But if 'reasonably fast' is not fast enough, there might be no option but going down one level of abstraction :-)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
