DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING SIMULATION FIDELITY BASED ON CHANGES IN ACTIVITY LEVELS OF COMPONENTS

Mechanisms are provided for controlling a fidelity of a simulation of a system. A model of the system is received, the model of the system having a plurality of individual components of the system. Fidelity values are assigned to models of the individual components of the system. A simulation of the system is executed using the model of the system and the models of the individual components of the system. For each component in the plurality of individual components of the system, an activity level of the component during execution of the simulation is determined. The fidelity values of one or more of the models of the individual components of the system are dynamically adjusted during the execution of the simulation based on changes in individual activity levels of the individual components.
