Abstract

This paper addresses the applicability of a cosimulation methodology to multi-domain and multilanguage systems design. This methodology starts with a system model given as a netlist of heterogeneous components and enables the systematic generation of simulation models for multi-domain and multi-language heterogeneous systems. For experiments, we used a complex multi-domain application: an optical MEM switch
