Description / Abstract:
This document defines the interface between federates
(simulations, supporting utilities, or interfaces to live systems)
and the underlying software services that support interfederate
communication in a distributed simulation domain.
Purpose
The High Level Architecture (HLA) has been developed to provide
a common architecture for distributed modeling and simulation
(MS). To facilitate interfederate communications, HLA
federates interact with an underlying software infrastructure. This
specification defines the standard services and interfaces to be
used by the federates to support efficient information exchange
when participating in a distributed federation execution. (A
federation execution occurs when sets of federates are brought
together to support an objective.)
