abstract = {Multi-modeling and co-simulation are one of the solutions for dealing with complex systems. In this paper, we propose to apply the AA4MM framework to the co-simulation of a smart space heating \complex" environment with 2 objec- tives. Our rst contribution is the development of AA4MM- FMI (Agent and Artifact for Multiple Models coordination for FMI). AA4MM is a modeling and simulation framework that can be used to implement the \master" in a multiple FMU (Functional Mock-up Unit) co-simulation of the FMI (Functional Mock-up Interface) standard with a fully decen- tralized view and intrinsic coordination. Our second contri- bution is to apply and evaluate this solution by creating a hierarchy of smart space models that are exploiting house geometry information. Each individual room is represented as an independent FMU taking inputs of the room's geo- metric information (surface area, volume, insulation, etc.), target temperature, and neighboring rooms. The neighbor- ing rooms are connected to each other using the AA4MM- FMI framework. This project aims to couple an electrical heating-based simulation with networking event-based sim- ulations to gain intuition for how house geometry a ects ecient heating and network connectivity. Using this smart space house heating problem, we are able to test AA4MM- FMI (our novel \master") for FMI and multi-simulation.}
