SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE CONFIGURATION OF A CLUSTERED SIMULATION NETWORK

摘要

The invention refers to a system and a method for configuring a clustered simulation network using virtualization whereas a user configures the access to the main engineering personal computer (PC) being used for the plant solution; the user configures the physical host PCs which are used for performing the virtual machines containing the simulators, the user selects the objects that should be simulated and based on the engineering data that the engineering PC provides, a framework application is provided to configure the required simulators, the required network interface, and the required IP addresses as well as the load balancing of the simulation tools, the required number of virtual machines, finally performing the simulators, and the distribution of virtual machines to the physical PCs.
