Design and use of an interactive simulation display generator

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6294303
As part of a continuing applied research effort into interactive graphics utilization, we have developed an interactive Simulation Display Generator (SDG). This SDG operates in response to menu selections chosen via a graphics tablet and textual information entered using a keyboard. It has the capability to create, display, modify, store, and retrieve either a complete display or individual components of a display which can later be used by a variety of simulation models. This paper discusses the development of the requirement for the SDG as well as the decisions and tradeoffs that went into the design and implementation. Its use in creating displays for a typical simulation is illustrated.
