In order to perform simulations of complex phenomena or solve problems, using systems is often the only resort. This paper examines the design of a general discrete-time system, modeling an interaction medium between several agents. Basic concepts like system, species, colony, subsystem, mutable arc and interface are precisely defined. An integrated development environment for system designing and performing simulations - SISYPHE - is described and some applications of system oriented programming are given.
