[Acpc-l] Simulation Professional Series(sm) in Washington, DC

[Distributed Simulation Technology]

Distributed Simulation Technology, Inc., the world leader in Distributed Simulation Training, is 
proud to offer the Simulation Professional Series(sm) of Short Courses June 11-22, 2001 in 
Washington, DC.   The Simulation Professional Series(sm) is a coordinated multi-course program 
designed to educate simulation professionals on the state of the art in Modeling and Simulation.  
This series provides the simulation engineer with valuable insights into the technologies that 
bring simulations to life with ever expanding levels of reality.  These classes can be taken 
individually or as a series.

Simulation Based Acquisition represents the next revolution in military business affairs.  This 
course provides the essential information for participating in SBA activities.  During this course 
students will look at applying bold and innovative approaches to acquisition through the DoD-
5000 series of documents and the SBA Road Map.  Students will follow the footstep of some 
commercial successes including the Boeing 777 and the Dodge Intrepid.  Key techniques, 
processes, technologies and prototype projects are presented in clear, understandable sessions.

Military Simulation: Techniques and Technology(tm) goes far beyond typical program 
overviews. This course will significantly raise the level of awareness and understanding that is 
essential in the military simulation field.  Attendees will learn the essential concepts for 
simulation interoperability, architectures, models and applications.  Developers and Managers 
will be prepared to use the newest technologies available and will gain an appreciation for the 
history of the field. This class is a great opportunity to expose new engineers to the field of 
Modeling and Simulation.

Visual Simulation: Techniques and Technology(tm) is a three-day exploration of the technology 
used in visualizing a simulation.  The materials presented will help students form and then 
answer many critical questions faced by the simulation developer.  How do I define appropriate 
visual system requirements to meet simulation criteria?  What is a realistic expectation of 
performance and capabilities from various types of visual systems? What can I expect from a 
PC-IG visual system?  What are the issues involved in the development of a correlated visual 
database?  

Network Simulation: Techniques and Technology(tm) is a three-day exploration of the 
technology used in distributing simulations across a network.  This course will examine 
technologies used in both military simulations as well as commercial games.  Course discussions 
will explore HLA, CORBA, DCOM, DIS, and a variety of supporting technologies necessary to 
make them work.  Important questions that will be explored include:
Is HLA right for my project and what will I need to use it?  What is IEEE 1516?  Are there other 
technologies available in industry that may fit my needs?  How can I determine what is feasible 
in a distributed simulation?  How can I best use networking technology in a simulation?  What 
kind of performance can I expect? How will latency impact my simulation?
