SIMULATION SYSTEM, METHOD FOR CARRYING OUT A SIMULATION, GUIDANCE SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAMME PRODUCT

摘要

A simulation system, in particular for a control system, which controls a process running in a technical system, is provided. The control system has at least one first process environment embodied as a container and which is also designed to simulate the automatic process to be run in the system and includes corresponding interfaces to the guidance system. The simulation system has, in addition to the first process environment, a second process environment embodied as a container for simulating the hardware of the periphery of the guidance system. In another embodiment variant of the simulation system, both of the process environments can also be combined to form one process environment. In both variants, the interfaces of the first process environment are practically identical to the interfaces of the second process environment. A method for carrying out a simulation and a corresponding control system and computer program product are also provided.
