The selection of an appropriate simulation language can have a profound impact on the success of a simulation study. The available options range from domain-specific simulation languages to general-purpose programming languages. These languages are often supported by a collection of tools which form a simulation system. This paper examines UCLA's SARA (Systems ARchitects' Apprentice) system and explores its' usefulness in modeling and simulating a data communications network. Based on experimental use of SARA's tools, the system is evaluated with respect to required expertise, modeling power, as well as measurement and reporting capability.
