An aspect of handling a plurality of simulated models includes receiving from a first simulation model a stream of source data and determining data processing compatibility between the simulation model and a second-simulation model by i) obtaining metadata relating to the first-simulation models from a memory and ii) obtaining metadata relating to the second simulation model from the memory. An aspect also includes generating a transformation component using a schema mapping tool for providing compatibility between the first and second simulation models upon a determination that the compatibility does not exist between the two models. The&#x2014;transformation component is generated&#x2014;using the metadata relating to the first and second simulation models. The method also includes generating a&#x2014;stream of target data by the second simulation model via the transformation component. The second simulation model uses the stream of source data as input.

Composite simulation modeling and analysis

An aspect of combining simulation models includes a processor configured to process information relating to a plurality of simulated models. The processor collects the information to be processed related to the simulated models in at least one memory having metadata relating to the simulated models. The processor has a transformation component generated using a schema mapping tool. The transformation component detects and corrects any incompatibility between a first and a second simulation model by obtaining metadata relating to the first simulation model and the second simulation model from the memory.

Embodiments relate to a method and computer program product for generating a composite simulated model. A method includes receiving a specification request for generating a set of target time-series data from a set of source time-series data and obtaining specification information relating to the set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of target time-series data, and obtaining the source time-series data. The method also includes comparing the source and target specification information to determine if the set of source time-series data are time-aligned with the set of target time-series data and converting the set of source time-series data to the set of target time-series data upon determination that time alignment is needed.

Synchronization of time between different simulation models

An aspect of synchronization of time between simulation models includes receiving a specification request for generating a set of target time-series data using a set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of target time-series data and obtaining the source time-series data; comparing the source specification information and the target specification information to determine if the set of source time-series data are time-aligned with the set of target time-series data, and converting the set of source time-series data to the set of target time-series data upon determination that time alignment is needed.

A system and method are provided for converting two-dimensional data, particularly information in HTML format, into a canonical representation for rendering in aural or other visual forms wherein each element of interest is selected based on it being part of a mathematically regular expression, namely any expression that can be parsed in a tree. To perform the selection, the container of the element is located, and then the local route of the element within the parsed tree is followed, such that a signature of the element built upon this identification can be constructed and stored for later use in retrieving and rendering the value of the element of interest. The element of interest can thereafter be rendered through an appropriate language translator of interest to the querier. As a further refinement of the invention, the method searches for repeated elements and then stores only one of the selected repeated elements, such as the first repeated element.
