This paper presents an approach to integrating a Petri net simulator into service-oriented simulation architecture in order to provide on demand simulation as a service. As a concrete example a simulation tool Renew is wrapped as a service and used to simulate a sample traffic control system represented as a Petri net model that is able to adjust its parameters via reflective simulation in distributed simulation environment. An overview of simulation architecture where modeling and simulation is treated as a service (MSaaS) is presented and its components, their role and attributes are defined and described. The architecture allows integration of various modeling and simulation tools with different level of functionality and can be used as a multiparadigm platform for modeling and simulation.
