Enhancing simulation composability and interoperability using conceptual/semantic/ontological models

Enhancing simulation composability and interoperability using conceptual/semantic/ontological models

Two emerging trends in modelling and simulation (M&S) are beginning to dovetail in a potentially highly productive manner, namely conceptual modelling and semantic modelling. Conceptual modelling has existed for several decades, but its importance has risen to the forefront in the last decade (Taylor and Robinson, 2006; Robinson, 2007). Also, during the last decade, progress on the Semantic Web...

JSB Composability and Web Services Interoperability

This paper summarizes research work conducted by academic and commercial organizations concerned with interoperable distributed information technology (IT) applications. Although the application focus is distributed modeling & simulation (M&S) the results and findings are in general easily applicable to other distributed concepts as well, in particular the support of operations by M&S applicati...

Industrial Internet: Towards Interoperability and Composability

Special Issue: Journal of Simulation Enhancing Simulation Composability and Interoperability using Conceptual/Semantic/Ontological Models Andreas Tolk and John A. Miller, eds. ONTOLOGIES AND TOOLS FOR ANALYZING AND COMPOSING SIMULATION CONFEDERATIONS FOR THE TRAINING AND TESTING DOMAINS

Military training and testing events integrate a diverse set of live and simulated systems, most of which were built independently and weren’t specifically designed to work together. Data interoperability and service-oriented architecture (SOA) approaches, while essential, do not provide a complete solution to ensuring that systems will be fully compatible in their interactions. We describe a c...
