Abstract

This report presents a survey of current simulation tools in the area of integrated control and real-time systems design. Each tool is presented with a quick overview followed by a more detailed section describing comparative aspects of the tool. These aspects describe the context and purpose of the tool (scenarios, development stages, activities, and qualities/constraints being addressed) and the actual tool technology (tool architecture, inputs, outputs, modeling content, extensibility and availability). <p> The tools presented in the survey are the following; <b>Jitterbug</b> and <b>TrueTime</b> from the Department of Automatic Control at Lund University, Sweden, <b>AIDA</b> and <b>XILO</b> from the Department of Machine Design at the Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, <b>Ptolemy II</b> from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at Berkeley, California, <b>RTSIM</b> from the RETIS Laboratory, Pisa, Italy, and <b>Syndex</b> and <b>Orccad</b> from INRIA, France. <p> The survey also briefly describes some existing commercial tools related to the area of real-time control systems.
