Table 2: The FCM Hierarchy Simulation Algorithm

Step Algorithm Process
1 Get the FCM dependency information
2 Does the active** FCM depend on other FCMs?
3 If yes go to the next non processed*** FCM that this FCM depends on and mark it as active
4 If the active FCM does not depend to any FCM and it is the start FCM then go to 11
5 Repeat Step 2 to Step 4 until the active FCM does not have any dependencies
6 Apply the FCM Algorithm
7 Mark the active FCM as processed
8 Pass the simulation results to the previous FCM that depends on the present active processed FCM and mark it as active
9 Repeat Step 2 to Step 8 until the Start FCM* has been reached
10 Repeat Step 2 to step 9 until the Start FCM does not have any dependencies
11 Apply the FCM algorithm
* Start FCM. The FCM that a user wants to simulate,** Active FCM. The FCM on which the FCM algorithm will be applied,***Non-processed FCM. An FCM that has not been simulated
