ADVANCED MASTER CLASS

Open Architectures and LVC Integration

LVC Integration

Definitions, paradigms, applications, and sub-disciplines are introduced.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Upon completion of this master class participants should be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

• The frameworks and approaches to designing and evaluating an LVC federation;
• Data engineering challenges including polymorphism and semantic mismatches;
• Dynamic aspects of distributed simulations including synchronisation, time management and algorithmic mismatches;
• Integrating LVC federations including security, analysis and visualisation; and
• VV&A requirements of LVC federations.

Technical knowledge required or completion of Federated Simulation Distribution and its Architecture Advanced Master Class.
