Abstract

Simulations are essential to evaluate Vehicle-2-X Communication applications and to efficiently prepare their deployment. Accordingly, to enable realistic simulations of Vehicle-2-X Communication applications, different kinds of simulators have to be coupled dynamically. Running coupled simulators synchronously and exchanging simulation data among them is a challenging task. Currently, simulator couplings lack flexibility because they are designed merely for specific simulators. In this work, the runtime infrastructure VSimRTI is presented allowing a flexible combination of time-discrete simulators for Vehicle-2-X simulations. Based on the requirements of a concrete scenario, arbitrary simulators can be plugged onto the VSimRTI and are executed together.
