The SEE HLA starter kit: enabling the rapid prototyping of HLA-based simulations for space exploration
Modeling & Simulation (M&S) is nowadays considered a pillar of modern engineering. Indeed, the analysis of several systems, processes and physical phenomena is only practicable by developing simulation models and executing them on suitable computing ...
Ensuring model continuity when simulating self-adaptive software systems
Self-adaptivity in software systems aims to balance the use of costly resources, i.e. of servers and energy, under given constraints such as Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. Simulation does not require risky testing in running systems and has less ...
Autonomous systems for operations in critical environments
This paper proposes an environment devoted to simulate the use of autonomous systems in the context of space exploratory missions and operations; this research focuses on supporting engineering of autonomous systems and of their innovative artificial ...
Simulation-based environment for the eye-tracking control of tele-operated mobile robots
Eye tracking has traditionally been used to measure the visual attention of users while performing a task or to aide disabled persons in performing hands-free interactions. The increased accuracy and reduced cost of eye-tracking equipment today makes it ...
Model based verification of cyber range event environments
We apply model based verification to cyber range event environment configurations, allowing for the early detection of errors in event environment configurations, and a reduction in the time and resources used during deployment. We categorize ...
DevsServer: ambient intelligence and DEVS modeling based simulation server
To improve disease surveillance systems (DSS) with faster and accurate outbreak detection and epidemics propagation capabilities, the availability of fine-tuned models is required along with the design of server based solution that simulate the effects ...
Stability and sensitivity measures for solutions in complex, intelligent, adaptive and autonomous systems
Simulation has become a pivotal tool for the design, analysis, and control of complex, intelligent, adaptive and autonomous systems and its components. However, due to the nature of these systems, traditional evaluation practices are often not ...
DEVS based network: modeling and simulation of propagation processes in a multi-layers network
This paper deals with diffusion process in a multi-layer network using DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) formalism. Social interaction plays an important role in studying the propagation of information, innovation, ideas, and influence among ...
Machine understanding in agent-directed simulation: state-of-the-art and research directions
To set the stage, the comprehensive big picture of simulation is evoked and references to get detailed information are given. As part of the powerful synergy of software agents and simulation, contribution of software agents to simulation is outlined ...
On the complexity of interoperability
Interoperability is generally understood as the ability of two or more systems to exchange information and make use of it. The state of the art in interoperability focuses on both the technical infrastructure necessary for information to flow between ...
Some modeling & simulation perspectives on emergence in system-of-systems
We consider the ability of Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) to provide the concepts and formalisms needed for modeling and simulation of emergent behavior. We show that DEVS provides systems components and coupling for models of systems of ...
Contextualizing emergent behavior in system of systems engineering using gap analysis
System of Systems can be classified as virtual, collaborative, acknowledged and directed per the MITRE System Engineering Guide. Emergent behavior can be classified as simple, weak, strong and spooky. While simple and weak emergent behavior can be ...
Drones based relief on moon disaster simulation
It is undoubted how effective is the use of simulation for training and building situation awareness in a dynamic scenario evolution. When a disaster occurs, risk managers and emergency officials are required to know what critical infrastructure has ...
