2
Significant MS Exercises Using RTI 1.3NGvx
  • AMC RDEC Federation
  • SMART 2001
  • Calibration Exercise
  • Future Combat Command Control Experiment (FCC2)
  • Joint Virtual Battlespace

3
PTN System Architecture
4
Paint the Night Federate Applications
5
RTI Implementation Issues Encountered
  • RID File Parameters
  • Advisories
  • Reliable Versus Best Effort Delivery
  • Discovery Process Could Take 5 minutes
  • Significant Impact on Operations
  • Queue Management
  • With Advisories, Queuing Problems Observable
    w/700 objects
  • Need a Fast Track for Priority Data (e.g.
    control information)
  • Interest Management
  • Updating ROIs Required As Much As A Minute
  • PST Federation Worked Around DDM Problems By
    Adopting a Gateway Filter

6
RTI Implementation Issues Encountered (Cont.)
  • RTI Deployment And Support
  • PTN Sensor Effects Federate - Sole Windows NT
    Application, Uses VC6 Compiler
  • Integration of TARDEC VTT Simulator Also
    Impacted By Lack of GCC Support
  • 32 Bit System Memory Management Is Limiting
  • Benchmarking and Diagnostic Tools
  • DDM Diagnostics Are A Must
  • Benchmarking Tools Should Account for Object
    Updates As Well As Total Number of Objects
  • Isolation of Latency Source(s) Is a Key
    Consideration
  • Better Tools Could Reduce the Time Required To
    Conduct Integration and Testing

7
Recommended Improvements
  • Declaration Management and Queuing
  • Should Be Able to Flush RTI Queue
  • Priority Queuing Should Be Supported
  • Declaration Management Should Allow For
    Discoveries In the Background Federates Should
    be Able to Join Federation Immediately, Rather
    than Wait for Discovery to Complete
  • Data Distribution Management
  • DDM Best Practices and Pitfalls Should Be
    Documented
  • RID File Upgrades
  • Add Rid File Parameter to Control Which Interface
    To Use for Reliable Traffic
  • Support for Multiple rtiexec, Multiple Subnets

8
Recommended Improvements (cont.)
  • Establish Hard Boundary on Maximum Tick to
    Improve Polling
  • Should Be Able to Query How Many Callbacks are
    In Queue
  • Remove Concurrent Access Restrictions from All
    Callbacks
  • (If Not Already Done)
  • Cross_Platform Support
  • Support CYGWIN, with GCC Support for Win32
  • Consider 64 Bit Implementation or Ability to
    Remap in Memory
  • (Important for graphics intensive
    applications)
  • Benchmarking And Diagnostic Tools
  • Expand Functionality of Existing DMSO Tools to
    Support
  • Multiple RID File Options
  • Test Conditions
  • Data Analysis
  • Should Be Able to Visualize Profile of Where
    Data Is Sent

9
Issues and Conclusions
  • Continued Support for Windows NT and IRIX OS
  • Compatibility of Commercially Available RTIs
  • Composability Versus Ease of Application Level
    Development
  • FOM Agility
  • OMD2Code Approach
  • Gateways and Bridge Federates
  • Scalability
