Distributed experiment for the calculus of optimal values for energy consumption in buildings

In this paper we address the problem of define and execute an environmental model, that describes the behavior of a building from the point of view of sustainability, in a distributed scenario. The inherent complexity of the experiment and the demanding amount of resources needed to perform the calculus, justify the need of distribute the execution of the experiment. This distribution is done through the use of a formal language that not only defines the model behavior, but also the experiment distribution. This methodology can be applied to other modelling environmental problems that usually requires a huge amount of resources to obtain the results, reducing the amount of time needed to perform the Modelling, Implementation, Verification and Experimentation.
