The Book will be updated. I am currently working on it when I have time.

When the update will appear in printed form is not yet decided. A good guess is during 2011.

Best regards

Hi,
are there plans yet when the updated version of the book will be available?
I would like to buy a book about Modelica soon, so is it a good idea to wait?
Regards,
Matthis

I have just seen that it is available for pre-order on amazon! I think I can wait until August.

Hello,

I am also very interested in an updated version of Prof. Fritzson's book ("Principles of Object-Oriented Modeling and Simulation with Modelica"). However is the new book linked by matth intended to be an update to "Principles", or is it something else?

I'm asking because the name is different ("Introduction to Modeling and Simulation of Technical and Physical Systems with Modelica") and it says it's "only" 232 pages, whereas "Principles" was around 900 pages.

I find "Principles" to be extremely useful as a day-to-day reference manual for Modelica. Especially the very detailed explanation of functions, data types, and the very advanced examples.

Will there be an updated version for "Principles" some time, too?

I do now have the "Introduction" book since a couple of weeks. In the preface it is stated that it gives a basic introduction only (and therefore could be used in a university class) but an update for the more extensive "Principles" is planned, too.

We also got the "Introduction" book in our institute's library. It is indeed more like a "light" course book intended for Modelica beginners, mostly with examples from the 2001 "Principles" book. My version (Wiley / IEEE press) is 211 page long (not 232 as announced on Amazon for a probably slightly different version?)

However it definitely does not replace "Principles" as a day-to-day reference work for experienced users.
