| The practical reality of modern DoD simulation programs is a patchwork of distributed architectures connected by gateways, portals, and interface bridges that allow a multitude of HLA FOMs, DIS, and other technologies to interact. Designers and program management personnel need to understand these critical technologies to survive in this complex battlefield that is a "simulation federation". Come learn how to spot potential problems and design your simulation environments for today's industry. Interface portability is a must and designs frequently need to accommodate multiple interface strategies.
This ALL NEW 3-day course combines in-depth presentations on the HLA and DIS standards, interface technologies, and a variety of concept models used in distributing simulations across a network. Course materials will examine technologies used in both military simulations (Joint Battle Exercises, Distributed Mission Training Programs and others) and commercial games.
Students will be given an in depth overview of the technologies available for building distributed simulation architectures and interfaces. The course will discuss implementation of real-time distributed simulation applications utilizing the DIS protocol, HLA, and a number of other technologies. Strengths and weaknesses of each technology will be discussed and techniques for combining several technologies in a project will be presented. This course focuses on both management and development considerations as well as real world situations that arise when utilizing these technologies.
Important questions that will be explored include:
Critical Issues and Current Events You Need to Know!
