The soil organic matter (SOM) consists of plant and animal residues that are partially decomposed and in continuous decomposition. The SOM has a direct effect on physical, chemical and biological characteristics in any terrestrial ecosystem and it has significant importance in nutrient availability, soil aggregation, water retention and exchanges fluxes of greenhouse gases between the land surface and atmosphere. Several models to simulate the dynamics of SOM in soil have been developed in recent years. A model that has great importance due to their ability to simulate the carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and sulfur (S) dynamics in soil-plant system for several agroecosystems, is the Century 4.0 model of MOS dynamic simulation. The model was developed by Great Plains System Research Unit-USDA (GPSR) and it works as an application on Windows platform for MSDOS environment (MicroSoft Disk Operating System). It´s exceeded architecture, in some computational aspects, prevent the execution of multiple simulations, as well as the spatially continuous dynamics of these. To remedy these deficiencies in the present work was coupled to the model the NURBS (Non Uniform Rational B-spline) non-linear interpolation method, as well as the development of an interface (Windows Century Manager –WinCent) to assist in the execution of multiple simulations and a window for graphic display in real time without the aid of any alternative software.
