While interesting this approach seems to be highly tailored to the
specific problem (i.e., the simulator itself needs to be constructed for
each model by the developer). You might want to check out the MDA
Translation tools that are available (e.g., xUML, Bridgepoint, PathMATE,
Rose/RT, Tau, Rhapsody, etc.). All of the tools that provide full code
generation from UML OOA/D models also provide built-in model-level
simulation as part of the tool. That is, model simulation is just as
automated as the code generation for general computing.

In my experience, the most common use cases for workflow simulation is capacity related - find resources/ processes bottom neck and estimate activity based costing. It is usually performed by business analysts with help from IT. Most will use bpmn process modeling instead of UML. UML is too much for business analysts.
