Abstract

Method, system and product for decomposing a simulation model. The method comprising automatically decomposing the simulation model into a predetermined number of co-simulation components, wherein each co-simulation component is allocated to a different simulation platform, wherein said automatically decomposing comprises: defining a target optimization function, wherein the target optimization function computes an estimated run time of the simulation model, wherein the target optimization function is based on a communication time within each co-simulation component and a communication time between each pair of co-simulation components; and determining a decomposition of the simulation model that optimizes a value of the target optimization function. The method further comprises executing the decomposed simulation model by executing in parallel each co-simulation component on a different simulation platform, whereby the simulation model is executed in a distributed manner.
