Yes. I think this is a good idea. In the introduction, I have some 
suggestions:

- Please make sure that people get the meaning of "simulation" right. I saw 
many people who have the background of CS misunderstanding simulation 
as "statistical analysis" or "artificial life" or like that. The simulation 
is about business processes. This should be clear.

- Please make sure that people understand why the "simulation tree" is worth 
having. Otherwise, they will start to wonder why the system must be so 
complicated. It is necessary to track information later on in a persistent 
way.

For now I have no time to write good text myself, but I will contribute from 
time to time, if you can set up a draft page.

Regards,
YO
