GEST is the first model and simulation specification language. Specifications of the model and the experiment are totally separated. The modelling world view is based on the axiomatic system theory of Wymore which provides an excellent basis for simulation modelling and symbolic model processing. This chapter two aims: 1) to present the GEST language and the robust and rich modelling paradigm it provides even for non-simulation application areas, as well as 2) to foster design and development of other GEST-like modelling and simulation languages which would provide other modelling formalisms within comprehensive modelling and simulation systems.
