Methods and systems for modeling and predicting control system behavior through fast-forwarding are provided herein. The method includes obtaining sets of equivalent inputs, time zones, and a user-defined stop time. The method also includes taking a primary checkpoint of a main instance of a control system in response to a user input. The method includes fast-forwarding the control system by generating a secondary instance from the main instance at the primary checkpoint and subjecting the secondary instance to each combination of an input from each of the sets of equivalent inputs in each time zone. The method includes taking a secondary checkpoint from the primary checkpoint for each combination. For each secondary checkpoint, the method includes fast-forwarding the control system by generating a tertiary instance from the secondary instance and subjecting the tertiary instance to each combination as long as a time does not exceed the user-defined stop time.
A method for modeling and predicting control system behavior through fast-forwarding, comprising:
A system, comprising:
One or more non-transitory, computer-readable storage media for storing computer-readable instructions, the computer-readable instructions providing a system for modeling and predicting control system behavior when executed by one or more processing devices, the computer-readable instructions comprising code configured to:
