Generation of Functional Mockup Units for Transactional Cyber-Physical Virtual Platforms

Modeling Cyber-Physical Systems requires aggregating semantics and languages tailored to different specific domains, while simulating these systems requires integrating different tools and technologies. Academy and Industry are working to define standard interfaces allowing to facilitate such integration. The Functional Mockup Interface (FMI) standard is one of the most promising tools produced by this effort. It allows to easily export and integrate heterogeneous models. However, the standard still shows some weaknesses. In particular, it still does not provide a proper support for describing discrete-event systems.
