Study of DDS-Based Test-Bed Architecture

Abstract:

Simulation technology is commonly used to study physical systems or imagined systems. Simulation systems can be used to perform what-if analysis on the simulated system, to predict the different results of varying key parameters/estimates or to examine a series of solutions prior to making the final implementation decision. It introduces the integration requirement of simulation test-bed, and the importance of decoupling the simulation component from normal federates is explained. The framework of test-bed which is based on the Data Distribution Service (DDS) model is proposed. A series of experiments to compare the decoupled architecture with a normal one are performed to study the scalability by emulating the simulation process based on the decoupled architecture.
