Data passed between federates by the RTI is entirely parametric to the RTI (i.e. RTI does not Interpret it -- the FOM explains it)
|
| 2 |
This contrasts with DIS, where a new data item means a new PDU and changes to DIS infrastructure
-
DIS is the real time platform FOM
|
| 3 |
FOM describes the kinds of things federates will talk about in a federation including: objects and interactions
|
| 4 |
FOM (object attributes and their interaction) is agreed by federation designers before execution
|
| 5 |
Parts of the FOM are supplied, at execution time, as data to the RTI
-
In 1.0, the FOM data takes the form of <fedexname>.fed (equivalent of IDL file in CORBA) , for "federation execution data"
-
File must be stored in a place accessible to each federate; where federate looks is a configuration item
