Abstract
The simulation of complex physical systems using realistic models is still a challenge to the design of the simulation program as well as to it's performance. While former simulation-environments were either well structured but slow or hard-coded and fast, the SOFTPAR Esprit Project 8451 environment offers a real solution for both requirements.
The simulation of a coal fired power generation plant profits from this software factory. Designed in the standard HOOD method and coded in paradise C++ style, the simulator can run on a wide range of parallel machines. A performance evaluation shows the profit in clear numbers of gained performance-speedup.
