Distributed Information Enterprise Modeling and Simulation (DIEMS)

Abstract

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has produced a communication simulation called DIEMS (Distributed Information Enterprise Modeling and Simulation) that is based on Metron's parallel simulation framework, SPEEDES (Synchronous Parallel Environment for Emulation and Discrete-Event Simulation). Over the course of the contract, Metron has assisted AFRL in three broad categories of activity: (1) providing the capabilities to allow DIEMS to participate in High-Level Architecture (HLA) federations; (2) general support implementing, testing and debugging DIEMS; and (3) upgrades to the SPEEDES framework. Metron has assisted in developing and debugging DIEMS, in all aspects of integrating DIEMS into an HLA federation, and provided improvements to the SPEEDES framework. Because of the challenging nature of parallel simulation, support of this kind is an extremely valuable resource. By increasing the rate of development and preventing snags from turning into lengthy delays, it has been a wise investment.
