In this research, issues related to deadlock detection indiscrete event simulation models and the feasibility of interfacing a deadlock detection algorithm to a commercial simulation language have been explored. For the purpose of this research, a deadlock detection algorithm has been designed, developed and interfaced to the SIMAN commercial simulation language. Both the algorithm and the interface have been validated using a set of sample scenarios. The details of the deadlock detection algorithm, the interface to the chosen commercial simulation language and the validation scenarios are discussed in this paper, along with the lessons learned and recommendations for future enhancements.
