Abstract

This paper presents a parallel, component-oriented nuclear power plant simulator kernel. It is based on the high-performance computing oriented Common Component Architecture. The approach takes advantage of both the component paradigm and the parallel execution of simulation models. This way, the maintenance, evolution and efficiency of a simulator are improved. The work introduces the main features of the simulator kernel, describing concepts and the model it is based on. Data dependencies among components (simulation models conforming a simulator) are solved in a configuration phase, reducing the execution time of the simulation phase. Some preliminary results are shown, which anticipate the feasibility, suitability and efficiency of the proposal.
