Development of a Continuous System Simulation Engine in Python Programing Language

This paper portrays the development of an simulation engine in Python programming language with focus on the continuous system simulation. Features of the engine are based on CSMP block-oriented language and software for continuous system simulation. The aim of the paper is threefold. Firstly, the paper describes the need and usage of such engine. Second goal is to analyze Python concepts used for the implementation of the simulation engine - API development, communication with smart systems, real-time data processing, integration of differential equations, threading and parallel programming. And last, this paper will depict the engine architecture, use cases and usage of the analyzed concepts in the development process. In the conclusion, we will discuss the overall outcome and the course of the future improvements and upgrades of the engine.
