“…The HSM enables AnyLogic to support a wide range of RTI services such as Federation Management, Declaration Management, Object Management, and Time Management. The HSM uses a StepHook [27] interface. This StepHook interface places specific methods on the engine that is performing the model's time steps.…”

This paper discusses an environment being developed to model a mission of the Space Launch System (SLS) and the Multipurpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) being launched from Kennedy Space Center (KSC) to the International Space Station (ISS). Several models representing different phases of the mission such as the ground operations processes, engineered systems, and range components such as failure tree, blast, gas dispersion, and debris modeling are explained. These models are built using different simulation paradigms such as continuous, system dynamics, discrete-event, and agent-based simulation modeling. The High Level Architecture (HLA) is the backbone of this distributed simulation. The different design decisions and the information fusion scheme of this unique environment are explained in detail for decision-making. This can also help in the development of exploration missions beyond the International Space Station.

“…The standalone simulation of hybrid systems means that the systems are modeled and simulated by only one modeling tool or methodology without the help of any others. For example, the following tools are used for stand-alone simulation and modeling systems: MATLAB/Simulink, Ptolemy II [5], AnyLogic [6], and PowerDEVS [7]. The SimEvents toolbox [8] supports MATTLAB/Simulink supports discrete event simulation, and the Event Translation block enables communication between SimEvents and other continuous operational blocks.…”

A hybrid system is a combination of discrete event and continuous systems that act together to perform a function not possible with any one of the individual system types alone. A simulation model for the system consists of two sub-models, a continuous system model, and a discrete event model, and interfaces between them. Naturally, the modeling/simulation tool/environment of each sub-model may be different and specific to the model types and the associated modeling formalisms. This paper proposes a framework for simulating hybrid systems by means of interoperation between existing simulators for a continuous model and a discrete event model using a High Level Architecture (HLA). Each simulator is executed using different simulation algorithm, and pre-simulation methodology is applied for synchronization of the different simulators. The main advantage of the proposed approach is the reuse of simulation models, which are developed in their own simulation environments of heterogeneous types. The proposed framework was applied to water level simulation.

“…However, almost all research in CSP interoperability using the HLA standard is concerned with conservative synchronisation. For example, HLA-RTI has been used with CSPs AnyLogic™ (Borshchev et al, 2002), AutoSched™ (Gan et al, 2005) and Witness™ (Taylor et al, 2003). However, these individual research projects developed different and incompatible approaches to using CSPs together with HLA standard for distributed simulation.…”

Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) is a decision support technique that allows stakeholders to conduct experiments with models that represent real-world systems of interest. Its use in healthcare is comparatively new. Healthcare needs have grown and healthcare organisations become larger, more complex and more costly. There has never been a greater need for carefully informed decisions and policy. DES is valuable as it can provide evidence of how to cope with these complex health problems. However, the size of a healthcare system can lead to large models that can take an extremely long time to simulate. In this chapter the authors investigate how a technique called distributed simulation allows us to use multiple computers to speed up this simulation. Based on a case study of the UK National Blood Service they demonstrate the effectiveness of this technique and argue that it is a vital technique in healthcare informatics with respect to supporting decision making in large healthcare systems.
