Foil 64 HLA Comprises Three Components: Rules, Runtime Infrastructure, Templates

From General NPAC Foils-98A starting January 98 (PowerPoint) NIMA HQ Fairfax Virginia -- January 12 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox


HLA Rules: A set of rules which must be followed to achieve proper interaction of federates during a federation execution. These describe the responsibilities of federates and of the runtime infrastructure in HLA federations
  • HLA Rules correspond roughly to a CORBA vertical facility
Interface Specification: Definition of the interface services between the runtime infrastructure and the federates subject to the HLA
  • In CORBA, this would correspond to services
Object Model Templates: The prescribed common method for recording the information contained in the required HLA Object Model for each federation and federate
  • In CORBA, this would correspond to the IDL specification of objects but in HLA, objects are specified as tables of properties which are linked by interactions whereas in CORBA, one uses methods of objects.
