Dynamic Translator Development: Modelica in the Python TRAP
ERCIM News, (января 1999)Аннотация
Modelica is the new unified, object-oriented description language for dynamical models of physical systems developed in an international effort in which GMD co-operates. GMD is developing a Modelica translator for integration in the Smile dynamic simulation environment. The Python language which is used as an integration platform in Smile, together with associated tool components also proved to be a powerful basis for translator development. By its combination of very high level of abstraction, interpreted execution, and ease of extensibility, Python enables a new development methodology also for language processors; with reference to generic simulation environments, it provides a unique foundation for R&D in dynamic model evolution.
