Desenvolvimento de simulações federadas utilizando arquitetura orientada a modelo

Abstract

The use of simulations in its distributed version is applied in diverse areas and with different purposes. Applications simulations must meet standards such as HLA, aiming to meet the integration and the possibility of interoperability requirements with other simulators in the same simuland. Therefore the development and simulations project distributed turns out to be a complex task, which combines the complexity of the environment that intend to simulate with HLA standard features thus the adoption of development processes is recommended, with the DSEEP process recommended by IEEE. Thus, this paper applies the MDA approach the steps of the development process described by DSEEP in view of the MDA approach to simplify and abstract the simulation environment of the project as well as providing the automation of stages. To this end, artifacts were built to model specifications for simulation environments, UML profile, and for the transformation of the created models into textual artifacts. Finally, the proposed approach and its artifacts are applied to a classic example of the area, seeking to validate what was developed and proposed. The work still leaves several opportunities for improvement that can be explored in future works.
