High Level Architecture
The Department of Defense (DoD) modeling and simulation master plan calls for the establishment of a DoD-wide High Level Architecture (HLA) for modeling and simulation, applicable to a wide range of functional applications. The purpose of this architecture is to facilitate interoperability among simulations and promote reuse of simulations and their components.
A named set of simulations interacts via the services of the HLA Run Time Infrastructure (RTI) and with a common object model and a common ruleset is known as an HLA federation. The individual simulations within a federation are identified as federates. Teledyne Brown Engineering has been evolving HLA federates and methodologies since the first version of the RTI was released in early 1997.
Our HLA federation has a broad area of applicability. It includes the Advanced Sub-System Element and System Simulation (ASESS), a data-presentation tool, a 3-D visualization tool, and a man-in-the-loop workstation. All of these tools were developed by Teledyne Brown.
