Utsaf: Getting the Best of Consumer Graphics into Military Simulations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rapid advances in consumer electronics have led to the anomaly that consumer gaming hardware and software now provide better interactive three-dimensional graphics than military and other specialized systems costing orders of magnitude more. UTSAF is bridging software written to take advantage of the power of modern gaming systems by allowing them to participate in distributed simulations with military simulators such as the Modular Semi-Automated Forces (ModSAF). UTSAF parses the ModSAF network protocol and uses the information gained to control entities within the Unreal Tournament video game, using the Gamebots modification. This paper describes the advantages of game-based simulation, and the UTSAF bridging and control architecture.

In recent times the uses of wireless devices are fetching ubiquitous and these networks have turn into an increasingly important part of global communication architecture. Information gathering is the problem of sending one packet each from a subset of the nodes to a single sink node in the network. In view of the fact that the vast majority of data applications make use of the TCP/IP protocols...
متن کاملUtsaf: a Multi-agent-based Framework for Supporting Military-based Distributed Interactive Simulations in 3d Virtual Environments
A Military-based distributed interactive simulation (DIS) such as ModSAF has been used for many years. Several problems of the DIS-based simulation to support a large and heterogeneous virtual simulation environments have been discovered (Stone, Zyda, Brutzman, and Falby 1996). To solve these problems, we propose an architectural multiagent-based framework to support a large military-based simu...

Although Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SPMVs) algorithms are simple, they include important parts of Linear Algebra algorithms in Mathematics and Physics areas. As these algorithms can be run in parallel, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) has been considered as one of the best candidates to run these algorithms. In the recent years, power consumption has been considered as one of the metr...
