This presentation at ITEC 2011, explain how to cohabitate in a single architecture the DDS and HLA standards in order to provide real time distributed simulation in Net-Centric applications.

5. Towards massive distributed Simulation The Navy identified networked trainers as a key requirement in future training systems . Networking capability exists in many simulators, but frequently the capability is cumbersome to set up and difficult to use, particularly when participants are not collocated . In addition, the speed is not yet available to support the requirements for real time simulation across distributed networks . There are work-arounds, but they do not currently support full, real time simulations. The ability to easily and seamlessly link multiple training devices into the same training scenario will greatly enhance the quality and effectiveness of the training. […] Effective networking of simulators will require a common architecture and industry wide standards . Over the years, the High Level Architecture has provided the foundation for this standard, but going forward these standards will need to expand to accommodate new capabilities and new participants . The NASMP needs normalized, consistent architecture and a well articulated business case to justify the investment in the NASMP.
