abstract = {Model reuse and interoperability are cost and effort saving solutions for the simulation-driven development of embedded real-time systems. Different embedded systems share the same components (e.g. motors, sensors, actuators, controllers , etc), and remodeling them is costly in terms of time and effort. Instead, by combining different existing models, developers can improve productivity. To do so, we here present a generic lightweight interface for message transfers between DEVS models running on different DEVS-based tools. The idea is to allow defining component-based models to be deployed on different tools collaborating in real-time. The components work autonomously as separate DEVS models, and exchange messages at the input-output level over a network infrastructure. We present a proof of concept implementation in which we interfaced ECD++ and PowerDEVS, to DEVS-based tools.},
