20090089029 | ENHANCED EXECUTION SPEED TO IMPROVE SIMULATION PERFORMANCE - Systems and methods are provided to facilitate simulation(s) of components of an industrial control system. Simulation(s) execution time can be decreased by conducting the simulation in a parallel computing platform, and coupling the simulation with an optimization component that restructures the simulation code. Such automated reconfiguration removes inhibitors for parallelism, resulting in optimized code to execute the simulation, with the ensuing reduction in execution time. Execution time can also be reduced by applying an adaptive time step during state propagations that are part of the simulation. | 04-02-2009 |
20090089030 | DISTRIBUTED SIMULATION AND SYNCHRONIZATION - System(s) and method(s) facilitate a distributed simulation of an industrial control system.
