- Multiple Simulators
- ===================
- In some situations, having multiple models (and their respective simulator) in the same Python script is useful for comparing the performance.
- Local simulation
- ----------------
- In local simulation, it is possible to create multiple Simulator instances without any problems::
-
- sim1 = Simulator(Model1())
- # Any configuration you want on sim1
- sim1.simulate()
- sim2 = Simulator(Model2())
- # Any configuration you want on sim2
- sim2.simulate()
- Distributed simulation
- ----------------------
- Starting up multiple Simulator classes is not supported in distributed simulation. This is because starting a simulator will also impose the construction of different MPI servers, resulting in an inconsistency.
- It is supported in distributed simulation to use :doc:`reinitialisation <reinitialisation>`, simply because it is the same model and is coordinated by the same simulator.
