This unique
text/reference provides a comprehensive review of distributed simulation (DS)
from the perspective of Model Driven Engineering (MDE), illustrating how MDE
affects the overall lifecycle of the simulation development process. Numerous
practical case studies are included to demonstrate the utility and
applicability of the methodology, many of which are developed from tools
available to download from the public domain.

Topics and features:

• Provides a thorough introduction to the fundamental
  concepts, principles and processes of modeling and simulation, MDE and
  high-level architecture


• Describes a road map for building a DS system in
  accordance with the MDE perspective, and a technical framework for the
  development of conceptual models


• Presents a focus on federate (simulation environment)
  architectures, detailing a practical approach to the design of federations
  (i.e., simulation member design)

Discusses the main activities related to scenario
management in DS, and explores the process of MDE-based implementation,
integration and testing

• Reviews approaches to simulation evolution and
  modernization, including architecture-driven modernization for simulation
  modernization


• Examines the potential synergies between the agent, DS,
  and MDE methodologies, suggesting avenues for future research at the
  intersection of these three fields

Distributed Simulation –
A Model Driven Engineering Approach is an important resource for all
researchers and practitioners involved in modeling and simulation, and software
engineering, who may be interested in adopting MDE principles when developing
complex DS systems.
