The steps roughly are to\n\n- [x] implement the basic clock and event handling functionality,\n- [ ] write examples of event-, activity- and process-based simulations,\n- [ ] explore further possibilities of Erlang/Elixir for DES,\n- [ ] combine them into one convenient framework.\n\n## Development\n\nAll this is in an early stage and only possible in principle. The constraint is my time and knowledge. It is a fascinating playground to find out more about it. Other people are welcome to comment and to join.\n\n------------\n\n## Installation\n\n[Registration in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish) will be done after the first steps (above) have been taken. Then the package can be installed by adding `events` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:\n\n```elixir\ndef deps do\n  [\n    {:events, \"~\u003e 0.1.0\"}\n  ]\nend\n```\n\nDocumentation can be generated with [ExDoc](https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc)\nand published on [HexDocs](https://hexdocs.pm). Once published, the docs can\nbe found at [https://hexdocs.pm/events](https://hexdocs.pm/events).\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpbayer%2Fevents","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpbayer%2Fevents","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpbayer%2Fevents/lists"}
