Open Data Distribution Service (DDS) for Use in a Real Time Simulation Laboratory Environment

Abstract

This report presents the technical objectives of OCI's activities during Phase 2, our findings and project activities, results from our activities and recommendations for further development, including plans for Phase 2.5 and Phase 3. The overall objective of this phase was to demonstrate the suitability for commercialization of the OpenDDS product for use in the simulation laboratory as middleware for the distribution of simulation data. We identified the use of a toolkit during software development as integral to incorporation of this technology. This allows application developers and domain experts to focus on their problem domain rather than the details of middleware connectivity and usage. This toolkit simplifies definition of the middleware segment of a system and allows low risk migration to next generation technologies. The Phase 2 activities also included implementation of features in the OpenDDS product to bring it into specification compliance. The underlying technology for transporting the data was simplified and improved during these activities. Some supporting tools for use during development and operation were also developed as part of this activity.
