  • SIMULATION SYSTEMS USING INVERSE INTEREST
    Publication number: 20220121796
    Abstract: A system, method and product for an interest-based distributed simulation system. A system comprising: multiple servers, wherein a component-server deployment defines which server is tasked with processing each component of a simulation; a database for storing values of components and delivering the values or portion thereof to servers based on interest definitions. A server of the multiple servers is authoritative over a target component of the plurality of components of the simulation. The server is configured to determine an inverse interest list for the target component, wherein the inverse interest list identifies all components interested in the target component according to the interest definitions. The server selectively transmits updates of the target component to the database based on the inverse interest list and based on the component-server deployment.

  • Interest-based distributed simulation system
    Patent number: 11222152
    Abstract: A system, method and product for an interest-based distributed simulation system. A system comprising: multiple servers, wherein a component-server deployment defines which server is tasked with processing each component of a simulation; a central database for storing values of components and delivering the values or portion thereof to servers based on interest definitions. A server of the multiple servers is authoritative over a target component of the plurality of components of the simulation. The server is configured to determine an inverse interest list for the target component, wherein the inverse interest list identifies all components interested in the target component according to the interest definitions. The server selectively transmits updates of the target component to the central database based on the inverse interest list and based on the component-server deployment.
