Virtual Ship Architecture Description Document Issue 1.00

Abstract

The Virtual Ship concept calls for simulation models of systems to be brought together to create a virtual representation of a warship, in a process analogous to the construction of a physical ship. The essential technical requirement enabling the Virtual Ship is an architecture for linking simulation models. The High Level Architecture (HLA) has been adopted and extended for this purpose. This extension is known as the Virtual Ship Architecture (VSA), and is described in this document.
