The concepts of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) are gradually becoming a fundamental sector which attracts the attention of researchers in the modern age. Operational systems in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) have to be investigated using these concepts to achieve quality results. Until now, many scholastic contributions have been published regarding the various perspectives and aspects of M&S. However, there are gaps in the discussion of the complete cycle of modeling and simulation

... ich incorporates the verification and development of an architecture that can be used in manufacturing logistics for Product Development Schemes (PDS). In that case, this paper presents the Simulation Procedures (SP) and architecture can be used to comprehend the systems for product development. This contribution focusses on the validation and verification of the architecture as well. As such, this contribution fills the prevailing gap between the architectural design/development and the validation/verification of modeling and simulation procedures. These are the fundamentals in the application of the M&S approach to comprehend the systems of product development in SMEs.
