Modelica - A Unified Object-Oriented Language for Physical Systems ModelingDr Hilding Elmqvist, founder of Dynasim, developer of the Simnon simulation package, and designer of the modeling language Dymola took the initiative to design a new unified object-oriented language for physical systems modeling in 1996.The language is called Modelica and will enable the exchange and reuse of models and model libraries between different tools. Elmqvist was the chairman of a Technical Chapter within SCS (Society for Computer Simulation) International consisting of about 25 people from university and industry with much experience in modeling language design until end of 1999. Martin Otter, DLR is now chairman of the new Modelica Assiciation. More information is available on the Modelica home page: |
