Simnet Case Study : Michael Zyda team

Does partitioning using the chosen architecture reduce bandwidth and computational requirements for large-scale virtual environments?

Does the architecture scale and if so how well?

• Get real world data from the National Training Center from a battle scenario.

• Use constructive model on the real world data to fill in the player positions and actions.

• Run a simulation of the Area of Interest Manager and kept records on the distribution of players among the hexes.

  • Peak Multicast traffic around 2Mbits/second, just over T-1 speed.

  • Peak at 1,500 players in an area of interest for Multicast.
