M/CD++: modeling continuous systems using Modelica and DEVS

M.C. D'Abreu, Gabriel Wainer

Open publisher page 23 citations

Abstract

DEVS theory (originally defined for modeling and simulation of discrete event systems) was extended for modeling and simulation of continuous/hybrid systems. We present the M/CD++, a tool to build such models using a subset of Modelica, a modular and acausal specification language for physical systems. Models are created using Modelica standard notation, and a translator converts them into DEVS models. We show how to model these dynamic systems under the discrete event abstraction, including different execution results.
