Networking and Communications Technology Laboratory: Design/Development Progress Report. Submission 2

Abstract

This report presents a summary of the progress to data involving the design and development of the Institute For Simulation and Training's Networking and Communications Technology Laboratory. Within this laboratory there are two functional testbeds which house the equipment and capabilities required for carrying out the specific research activities of this project: The Simulation Network Prototyping Tested and the SIMNET World Access Testbed. The Simulation Network Prototyping Testbed supports research in several areas pertaining to the use of Local Area Network (LAN) technology for interconnecting Simulation Training Devices. These areas include: Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection protocol networks (i.e. ETHERNET), Token-Ring Networks, Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) Technology, Simulations Voice and Data Transmission, and Non-Homogeneous Simulator Network Interfacing.
