The Ptolemy Project is an ongoing project aimed at modeling, simulating, and designing
model based design and simulation tool. The Ptolemy Project is conducted in the Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems Center (iCyPhy) in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences of the University of California at Berkeley
, and is directed by Prof. Edward A. Lee.
The key underlying principle in the project is the use of well-defined models of computation that govern the interaction between components. A major problem area being addressed is the use of heterogeneous mixtures of models of computation.[1]
The project is named after Claudius Ptolemaeus, the 2nd century Greek astronomer, mathematician, and geographer.
The Kepler Project, a community-driven collaboration among researchers at three other University of California campuses has created the Kepler scientific workflow system which is based on Ptolemy II.
