US Patent 11966675 Systems and methods for co-simulation

A model including a first co-simulation component and a second co-simulation component is analyzed. During execution of the model, the first co-simulation component outputs data to the second co-simulation component via a connection. The connection is declared as a continuous-time rate connection for input of the data into the second co-simulation component. Based on analyzing the model, the connection is identified as a discrete-continuous sample time connection based on data being communicated from the first co-simulation component to the second co-simulation component via the connection at a discrete-time rate when the model is executed in a co-simulation manner.
