Abstract :
We present an improved simulation engine that combines dynamic structure DEVS with a real time simulation engine (eCD++). The improved simulation engine is implemented includes an advanced dynamic structure real-time experimental environment to adjust the model structure automatically according to the changes in the internal/external environments. The existing abstract simulators were redefined to adapt to dynamic structure. In addition, a new abstract simulator implements the structural change behaviour of structure agent that executes the structural changes.
