Abstract

A Web Architecture for Modeling and Simulation (WAMS) is presented which enables system modeling in your browser using the Modelica language. Compilation and simulations are done on a server using the Optimica Compiler Toolkit (OCT) from Modelon. Such an architecture is appropriate for making design space explorations such as sensitivity analysis, DOE, Monte Carlo analysis, optimizations, parameter estimation, etc. efficiently.
