To implement a combined discrete event and discrete time simulation such as submarine diving simulation in a distributed environment, e.g., in the High Level Architecture (HLA)/Run-Time Infrastructure (RTI), a HLA interface, which can easily connect combined models with the HLA/RTI, was developed in this study. To verify the function and performance of the HLA interface, it was applied to the submarine dive scenario in a distributed environment, and the distributed simulation shows the same results as the stand-alone simulation. Finally, by adding a visualization model to the simulation and by editing this model, we can confirm that the HLA interface can provide user-friendly functions such as adding new model and editing a model.

HLA(High Level Architecture)는 분산 시뮬레이션의 표준화를 위한 개념적인 분산 시스템 프레임워크이며, RTI(Run Time Infrastructure)는 HLA를 따르는 분산 시뮬레이션들을 위한 네트워크 하부구조이다. 분산 시뮬레이션은 분산 노드간에 효율적이고 인과 오류가 없는 통신 방법의 지원이 필수적이며, RTI는 시뮬레이션에 참여하는 분산 노드간 메시지 전송을 위하여 최선(best-effort) 전송 서비스와 신뢰(reliable) 전송 서비스를 규정하고 있다. RTI의 메시지 전송 서비스는 기본적으로 메시지 전송 과정에서 메시기간 인과 관계를 유지해야 하는 다자간 통신 서비스이며, 본 논문에서는 인터넷상에서 인과 오류가 없는 다자간 통신을 위한 새로운 형식의 분산 시스템 구조를 제안하고, 성능 평가를 위한 실험 결과를 소개한다.

Possibility of federation improvement requires flexibility and adaptability of member federates. Moreover, to develop and convert a non-HLA(High Level Architecture) compliant model as a HLA federate and allow this federate to be integrated with a changeable federation, more time and efforts will be necessary. In this research, I proposed a method to design and implement a ROM (RTI Object Model) Framework as a solution to this problem. ROM completely separates RTI (Run-Time Infrastructure) programming and simulation programming therefore providing epochal efficiencies in cost and productivity to the development a HLA federate that supports a changeable FOM. That is, ROM contains two layers : 1) a management layer that manages RTI services between the RTI and the federate and 2) a Foundation Class layer that actually updates/reflects objects and interactions. These two layers allow federate developers to use more generalized HLA services and automates the iterative, low-level RTI programming process.

The HLA is defined by three components: (1) Rules, (2) the HLA Interface Specification, and (3) the Object Model Template(OMT). The RTI(Run-Time Infrastructure) software implements the interface specification. It provides services in a manner that is comparable to the way a distributed operating system provides services to applications. A way to test whether is suitable for a standard, and all service was implemented is tested through two phases of processes to verify the RTI which proposed in DMSO. In this paper, we discuss Level One Test Procedures and a method. Confirms whether RTI was implemented in Interface Specification according to Level One Test Procedures appropriately through a test. Develops Test Suite for every each step to test whether a correct command and the expected results are occur.

The High Level Architecture(HLA) is the IEEE 1516 standard for interoperation between heterogeneous simulators which are developed with different languages and platforms. Run-Time Infrastructure(RTI) is a software which implements the HLA Interface Specification. With the development of time management service of RTI, it is necessary to consider an efficient design approach and an algorithm of Greatest Available Logical Time(GALT) computation. However, many time management services of existing RTIs have difficulty in modification and extension. Although some RTIs avoid this difficulty through modular design, they comply with not IEEE 1516 HLA/RTI but HLA 1.3. In addition, a lot of RTIs made use of well-known Mattern's algorithm for GALT computation. However, Mattern's algorithm has a few limitations for applying to IEEE 1516 HLA/RTI. This paper proposes a modular design and an implementation of time management service for IEEE 1516 HLA/RTI. We divided th time management service module into two sub-modules: a TIME module and a GALT module and used Mattern's algorithm improved for IEEE 1516 HLARTI. The paper also contains several experimental results in order to evaluate our time management service module.

HLA (High Level Architecture) 는 모델링과 시뮬레이션 분야에서 상호 이질적인 서비스에 따른 어플리케이션의 상호운용성(interoperability)과 재사용성(reusability)을 증진시키기 위해 필요한 infrastructure를 개발하기 위한 청사진이다. RTI(RunTime Infrastructure)는 HLA 의 소프트웨어적 도구로써 IibTRI, FedExec, RTIExec의 세 가지 컴포넌트로 구성되어 있다. RTI는 분산환경에서 동적으로 다수대다수간의 통신을 제공하는 미들웨어 (middleware)이다. 대규모의 분산 시뮬레이션의 실행은 지리적으로 퍼져있는 많은 양의 컴퓨팅 자원을 필요로 할 수 있는데 이러한 환경이 가지는 보안과 동적 자원 할당이라는 문제점을 Globus Toolkit3(GT3)안의 Open Grid Service Arcitecture(OGSA)를 사용해서 해결할 수 있는 RTI-G를 개발해 왔고 이를 service-oriented RTI-G라 부른다. 이 논문에서는 service-oriented RTI on Grid 의 구조와 앞에 제시된 문제점들의 해결방안을 제시하고 실험한다.

HLA (High Level Architecture) is the object, time, and interface standard that proposed for distribution simulation in the US Department of Defense. The HLA is defined by three components: Rules, the HLA Interface Specification, and the Object Model Template (OMT). The RTI (Run-Time Infrastructure) software implements the interface specification. It provides services to simulation applications. To test whether a RTI software is suitable for the standard and all service was implemented is performed through two phases of processes proposed by DMSO. In this paper, we implement Level One Test Procedures of DMSO and apply to NetCust's RTI software. The experimental results are discussed.

HLA is a general-purpose software architecture for distributed simulation designed to support a wide range of simulation approaches and application. The US DoD's HLA for modeling and simulation can certainly be regarded as the state of the art in distributed simulation. It is a mandatory standard for military simulation. The purpose of this paper is to describe applications of HLA/RTI in multiple domains across the manufacturing systems society. In many and large scale industrial systems, enormous data is generated, and is to be managed in an effective way. It needs a high performance common network library. Furthermore, it must satisfy the real function of system facilities as much as possible. The RTI is an implementation of the interface specification, provided as a set of services. Some applications focusing on the area of a small manufacturing system were demonstrated. The integration could be achieved using the HLA, together with interface modules for each of the subsystems. We have found that HLA/RTI are cable of meeting the functional requirements for a given system environment.

This paper presents design and implementation of the monitoring system for the distributed simulation of underwater warfare. As importance of defense modeling and simulation(M&S) has raised, Simulation-Based Acquisition(SBA) was authorized for an obligatory process in the development process of weapon systems. Yet, it requires tremendous resources to develop a large-scale simulation system that describes complex and broad battlefields. Therefore, an approach of the distributed system was devised to develop a new simulation system combining legacy simulators that were developed for confined purpose and sole operations. High-Level Architecture(HLA) of distributed systems is a standardized protocol by IEEE for the distributed simulation system and Run-Time Infrastructure(RTI) is an implementation of HLA to structure efficient distributed systems. The main objective of this paper is to derive appropriate monitoring factors for underwater warfare simulation, design and implementation of the monitoring system to analyze the factors based on HLA/RTI.

오늘날 발전을 거듭하고 있는 첨단 정보기술을 이용한 지능형 시뮬레이션/시뮬레이터의 표준으로 확고히 자리를 잡고 있는 HLA(High Level Architecture)는 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어의 재사용성과 상호운용성을 촉진시키기 위하여 미 국방성에 의해 개발되어 이제는 분산 시뮬레이션의 표준이라 할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 지능정보 기술이 시뮬레이션/시뮬레이터 기술과 어떻게 연관되어 있으며, 어떻게 사용될 것인가에 대한 개념 연구와, 시뮬레이션/시뮬레이터모델 내에서 첨단 정보기술들이 무슨 역할을 하는지에 대한 방향을 도출하였다. 또한, HLA와 HLA의 가장 중요한 구성 요소중 하나인 RTI(Run Time Infrastructure)의 최신 버전과 RTI가 지원하는 서비스에 대해 고찰하였다. HLA 페더레이션 개발자들이 HLA 페더레이션 개발시 지침이 되는 여섯 단계의 페더레이션 개발 절차인 FEDEP(Federation Development and Execution Process) 모델을 따랐으며, RTI의 최신 버전(RTI-NG 1.3v4)을 사용하여 HLA를 따르는 지능정보형 시뮬레이션 프로그램의 프로토타입을 개발하였다.
