How can simulation models effectively represent the different configurations of a multi-brand distributed EE system without excessive complexity or loss of accuracy?
What are the key challenges in ensuring seamless integration and communication between components from different brands within the distributed EE system?
How can simulation frameworks be designed to allow scalable testing as the system expands or new brands/components are added?
What strategies can be used in simulation models to verify fault tolerance, redundancy mechanisms, and failure propagation across multi-brand EE systems?
What is the optimal balance between virtual simulation testing and physical hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing when verifying a configurable multi-brand EE system?
