The '''Simulation Model Portability''' is a standard for simulation models developed by [[ESA]] together with various stakeholders in the European Space Industry.

The first version, also known as [[SMI standard]], was implemented in [https://web.archive.org/web/20080219030500/http://www.egos.esa.int/portal/egos-web/products/Simulators/SIMSAT/ SIMSAT] and [http://www.eurosim.nl/ EuroSim], simulator infrastructures in use at various [[ESA]] locations.
The second version, also known as Simulation Modelling Platform - SMP2, is currently at version 1.2. It is implemented in several Space Simulators such as Basiles (CNES) or [https://www.researchgate.net/publication/220953759_The_SimTG_simulation_modeling_framework_a_domain_specific_language_for_space_simulation SimTG] (AIRBUS D&S)

The [[European Cooperation for Space Standardization|ECSS]] has now taken the lead for further iterations of the SMP2 standard. At first, it has been published as a Technical Memorandum ECSS-E-TM-40-07 and in 2020 it become the ECSS standard ECSS-E-ST-40-07. The first implementations have already been released by several stakeholders in the European Space Industry. Simulations models have already been exchanged, using the new ECSS SMP between SIMULUS (ESA) and SimTG (AIRBUS D&S) simulators.  

{{Further|E-40-07}}

An update of the ECSS SMP E-40-07 is currently ongoing to specify the exchanged artefacts; called ECSS SMP Level 2 used to instantiate, configure and schedule a model execution. It is a collection of XSD files that define the model exchange format.
