We note interesting analogies, synergies and potential COTS based leverages between current and expected near term technology evolution pathways for a) DoD Modeling and Simulation and b) Web Based Computing.
|
|
As of mid '97, DoD M&S is based on a broad suite of DIS 2.x simulation standards and Web is based on another broad suite of publication (HTML), communication (HTTP), mobile code (Java), scripting (JavaScript) and visualization (VRML) standards.
|
|
Both domains experience now some difficulties in further evolution of their multi-faceted standard suites and they seek better paradigms to balance modularity with integration and interoperability.
|
|
Both domains view CORBA as a promising software integration/interoperability bus: DOD S&M via High Level Architecture (HLA), Web via the emergent Java ORB based Object Web.
|
|
Furthermore, advanced applications in both domains require HPCC technology insertions for dedicated performance critical tasks - to be most conveniently encapsulated and broadly published via the Object Web technologies.
|
|
Software industry expects Object Web to be "The Next Big Thing". Hence, by monitoring these developments and joining the process, we can predict, adapt, customize or develop COTS components of relevance for High Performance Forces Modeling and Simulation (FMS).
