• Improved accuracy for discrete simulation of event-based systems
  - Compensates for the errors introduced when events occur between samples
  - Accuracy depends on the time step selected with respect to the frequency content of continuous signals
  
  
• Fast simulation of event-driven systems
  - No iteration, uses fixed time-step algorithm
  - Faster simulation than variable-step algorithms
  - Supports distributed real-time simulation
  - Suitable for hard real-time applications such as hardware-in-the-loop or embedded simulations
  
  
• Compatible with visual simulation tools (e.g. Simulink) and code generators (e.g. RTW)
