Description	The representation of discrete-event systems has been subjected to intense research during the last decade. While the field is relatively well understood, some key concepts still lack a rigorous definition leading to undefined semantics. In this chapter we 56present new solutions to some of these issues. In particular we focus on the semantics of what is commonly called simultaneous events, in the presence of dynamic topologies. We provide a unified definition of time, based on the set of hyperreals [9], which is able to describe models and components while accommodating deterministic executions under structural changes. Hyperreals provide a physical interpretation for virtual clocks used in distributed systems [14] and warped simulations [11], offering a unified view for time representation.
