Title: Providing environmental representation and environmental effects in the DMSO HLA: Experiences from one protofederation

Conference ·
OSTI ID:383675

Argonne National Laboratory participated in the HLA prototyping effort as a member of the Joint Training Federation prototype (JTFp) team. Within the JTFp, Argonne provided the common environmental representation and functionality for the federation utilizing the Dynamic Environmental Effects Model (DEEM). In addition to acting as a source of environmental representation and functionality to the JTFp, DEEM was also used as a Scenario Monitor for the overall simulation to provide a commander`s eyeview of the simulated engagement. In this paper, the authors discuss the procedures used to arrive at a common environmental representation for the federation and to summarize the environmental functionality that was provided. In addition, they present results detailing any performance implications related to providing environmental representation and functionality in future HLA federations.
