Improving ParModAuto for Equation Based Mathematical Modeling & Simulation: Metaheuristic Approach

Despite their widespread use, modeling and simulation tools still face limitations in scalability, particularly when executed in distributed computing environments. In our prior research, we introduced a task-based library named ParModAuto, designed to enable the automatic parallelization of Modelica simulation models by supporting efficient representation, clustering, scheduling, profiling, and execution of complex, dependency-heavy equation systems, which employs heuristic-driven algorithms to address computationally challenging, NP-complete optimization problems. This paper investigates whether further enhancements to the parallelization library can lead to greater speedups in simulation performance, as benchmark results indicate that additional gains are achievable.

Abstract

Despite their widespread use, modeling and simulation tools still face limitations in scalability, particularly when executed in distributed computing environments. In our prior research, we introduced a task-based library named ParModAuto, designed to enable the automatic parallelization of Modelica simulation models by supporting efficient representation, clustering, scheduling, profiling, and execution of complex, dependency-heavy equation systems, which employs heuristic-driven algorithms to address computationally challenging, NP-complete optimization problems. This paper investigates whether further enhancements to the parallelization library can lead to greater speedups in simulation performance, as benchmark results indicate that additional gains are achievable.
