Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) to convert images of queuing networks into verifiable simulation models: an open-weight LLM workflow approach
Recent work has explored the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate simulation model building, typically by generating executable code directly from natural language descriptions. However, this raises challenges for verification and reproducibility particularly for users without programming expertise. We propose Sketch2DES, a sketch-to-simulation workflow that converts diagrammatic representations of queuing networks into verifiable discrete-event simulation models using open-weight LLMs. The workflow has three stages: (1) translation of a diagram into a semi-structured textual description using a multimodal LLM; (2) conversion into schema-validated structured data (JSON) via an ...
