IEEE develops its standards through a consensus

Volunteers are not necessarily members of the Institute and serve without compensation. While IEEE administers the p

10、rocess and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards. Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. IEEE disclaim

11、s liability for any personal injury, property or other damage, of any nature whatsoever, whether special, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or reliance upon any IEEE Standard document. IEEE does not warrant or represent the accur

IEEE S

13、tandards documents are supplied “AS IS.“ The existence of an IEEE Standard does not imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods and services related to the scope of the IEEE standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the time a standa

14、rd is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the state of the art and comments received from users of the standard. Every IEEE standard is subjected to review at least every ten years. When a document is more than ten years old and has not undergone a revision

15、 process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard. In publishing and making its standards available, IEEE is not

16、suggesting or rendering professional or other services for, or on behalf of, any person or entity. Nor is IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any other person or entity to another. Any person utilizing any IEEE Standards document, should rely upon his or her own independent judgment in the

17、exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances or, as appropriate, seek the advice of a competent professional in determining the appropriateness of a given IEEE standard. Translations: The IEEE consensus development process involves the review of documents in English only. In the event that

18、 an IEEE standard is translated, only the English version published by IEEE should be considered the approved IEEE standard. Official Statements: A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual shall not be considered the official

19、position of IEEE or any of its committees and shall not be considered to be, nor be relied upon as, a formal position of IEEE. At lectures, symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall make it clear that his or her views should be considere

Comments on Standards: Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide consulting information or ad

21、vice pertaining to IEEE Standards documents. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments. Since IEEE standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is important to ensure that any responses to comm

22、ents and questions also receive the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of its societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response to comments or questions except in those cases where the matter has previously been addr

27、ustry initiative to define an infrastructure forlinking simulations of various types at multiple locations to create realistic, complex, virtual “worlds” forthe simulation of highly interactive activities. This infrastructure brings together systems built for separatepurposes, technologies from diff

28、erent eras, products from various vendors, and platforms from various ser-vices and permits them to interoperate. DIS exercises are intended to support a mixture of virtual entitieswith computer-controlled behavior (computer-generated forces), virtual entities with live operators (humanin-the-loop s

29、imulators), live entities (operational platforms and test and evaluation systems), and construc-tive entities (wargames and other automated simulations). DIS draws heavily on experience derived from theSimulator Networking (SIMNET) program developed by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA),ad

30、opting many of SIMNETs basic concepts and heeding lessons learned.In order for DIS to take advantage of currently installed and future simulations developed by different orga-nizations, a means had to be found for assuring interoperability between dissimilar simulations. Thesemeans were developed in

31、 the form of industry consensus standards. The open forum (including government,industry, and academia) chosen for developing these standards was a series of semi-annual workshops onstandards for the interoperability of distributed simulations, which began in 1989. The results of the work-shops have

32、 been several IEEE standards along with supporting documentation. These standards provideapplication protocol and communication services and profile standards to support DIS interoperability. Inaddition, an IEEE recommended practice for exercise management and feedback provides user guidelinesfor se

33、tting up and conducting a DIS exercise.The relationship between the component documents constituting the set of IEEE DIS documents is shown inthe figure below. Used together, these standards and recommended practices will help to ensure an interoper-able simulated environment.1278.1-1995 and1278.2-1

38、) define the format and semantics of datamessages, also known as protocol data units (PDUs), that are exchanged between simulation applicationsand simulation management. The PDUs provide information concerning simulated entity states, the type ofentity interactions that take place in a DIS exercise,

39、 and data for management and control of a DIS exercise,simulated environment states, aggregation of entities, and the transfer of control entities. IEEE Std 1278.1a-1998 also specifies the communciation services to be used with each of the PDUs. An additional, non-IEEE document is required for use w

In addition, IEEE Std 1278.2-1995 provides severalcommunicat

This recommended practice is used in conjunction with IEEE Std 1278.1-1995,IEEE Std 1278.1a-1998, and IEEE Std 1278.2-1995.IEEE Std 1278.4-199

45、for all proposed verification and validation activities and provides rationale and justification foreach step.IEEE P1278.5, Draft Standard for Distributed Interactive SimulationFidelity Description Requirements,provides a taxonomy of fidelity characteristics with a consistent and uniform language to
