Wattson Basics

Before looking into some more in-depth aspects of Wattson, you should get familiar with what Wattson is, how it works and, last but not least, what it not is. To do so, look into the Wattson Basics.

Starting Wattson

Wattson is a Python module that offers an entry point to start a co-simulation based on a scenario. A scenario specifies the behavior of the co-simulated cyber-physical system. A scenario is a collection of configuration files in a folder. To start a co-simulation in Wattson for this scenario, pass the path to this folder to Wattson as an argument.

sudo python3 -m wattson path/to/scenario
