[SciPy-user] Best way to structure dynamic system-of-systems simulations?

I'm looking for any pointers on the best way to to structure the
simulation of a system composed of subsystems, i.e., I want to build my
system model as an assemblage of component models, where some components
may use as U values the Y values from other components. Each of the
components can be modeled in state-space form, i.e.:

X_dot = A(X,U,t)
    Y = B(X,U,t)

where A and B are matrix functions (not necessarily linear).

Is anyone using any sort of framework to simplify this task? What's the
best approach?

If it makes any difference, I've been using odeint.

Thanks,
Phil
