The primary goals of this project are:

• To develop tools for efficient simulation of complex, tightly-coupled multi-physics systems, with real-time constraints.
• To reduce product development cost and time by design optimization and by hardware-in-the-loop simulation for assessment, training and test automation purposes.

In order to reach these goals for realistic industrial products, the project is divided into 

Technology development:

• Modeling of multi-physics systems with the Modelica modeling language (popular description).
• Symbolic transformation of large scale Modelica models (> 100 000 equations) to generate efficient C-code for real-time applications.
• Parallel and distributed simulation to enhance the performance of hardware-in-the-loop simulation and of multi-criteria optimization.
• Multi-criteria optimization based on distributed simulations.
• Closely integrated Modelica modeling and simulation environment with interactive experimentation, design optimization and visualization.

End-user applications to assess and demonstrate the technology:

• Design optimization of industrial robots.
• Realtime simulation of power system transients.
