In this paper we introduce a general-purpose software tool for discrete event system specification (DEVS) modeling and simulation oriented to the simulation of hybrid systems. The environment, called PowerDEVS, allows ...

Increased accessibility to high-performance computing resources has created a demand for user support through performance evaluation tools like the iSPD (iconic Simulator for Parallel and Distributed systems), a simulator ...
