[Repast-developer] Distributed RePast using HLA

[Robert M. <R.M...@cs...>]

Hi all,

I've been working with RePast since last summer, trying to integrate it 
with the distributed-simulation protocol 'HLA', developed by the DOD and 
now an IEEE standard (1516).

There is information about HLA, the mechanisms and the protocol here:

https://www.dmso.mil/public/transition/hla

The middleware I've been developing to make RePast talk to itself through 
the HLA is finished, we've created some benchmarking models, run some 
performance tests and written a paper.

This paper will be presented by me next week at the European Simulation 
Interoperability Workshop (EURO-SIW), information about the conference can 
be found here:

http://www.sisostds.org/siw/04Euro/

If, by any chance, somebody on this list will be around, drop me or my
supervisor a line (R.M...@cs... or 
G.K...@cs...) and we can meet up for a chat if you're
interested.

Other than that, just thought I'd put the information out there as I think 
it is pertinent in some way at least to RePast development.

Regards, Rob.
