Simulation is one of the key areas of Industry 4.0. Simulation in the software industry is applied to the prediction of the application behavior from modeling. One kind of simulation is related to obtaining source code from models; in the case of events, such simulation can be achieved from some conceptual schemas to trigger-based languages and vice versa, but excluding PL/pgSQL. For this reason, in this paper, we propose a set of heuristic rules for obtaining PL/pgSQL code from pre-conceptual schemas, as a way to simulate the behavior of applications that include events. Such rules are validated by using a lab study related to the expansion of an epidemic. We can simulate the future behavior of the application and the associated results by executing the rules in the lab study.

Keywords : Simulation; Industry 4.0; Events; Pre-conceptual schemas; PostgreSQL.
