However, traditional RTI design and resulting implementations have been facing several difficulties, especially in satisfying the requirements for real-time distributed simulations. Many improved or novel RTI designs have been proposed in recent years, which aim to improve the real-time capabilities of RTI systems. Such designs are in general non-formalized, and the realizations of the designs are highly time-consuming and error-prone practices. In this paper, we propose a formal real-time RTI (RT-RTI) design approach using Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS). We discuss the feasibility of using DEVS and, as an additional step, we consider the case study of two recently proposed RT-RTI designs through a formalized DEVS model system. Our focus is how a DEVS component-based formalized design approach can predict some of the key design factors before the design is realized, or can further validate and consolidate realized RT-RTI designs. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0037549708092223","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,3]],"date-time":"2008-09-03T09:32:53Z","timestamp":1220434373000},"page":"231-238","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["DEVS Approach to Real-time RTI Design for Large-scale Distributed Simulation Systems"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"84","author":[{"given":"Azzedine","family":"Boukerche","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"PARADISE Research Laboratory University of Ottawa 800 King Edwards St, Ottawa Ontario K1N 6N5, Canada,"}]},{"family":"Ming Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PARADISE Research Laboratory University of Ottawa 800 King Edwards St, Ottawa Ontario K1N 6N5, Canada"}]},{"given":"Ahmad","family":"Shadid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PARADISE Research Laboratory University of Ottawa 800 King Edwards St, Ottawa Ontario K1N 6N5, Canada"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,5,1]]},"reference":[{"volume-title":"Proceedings of DS-RT","author":"Boukerche, A.","key":"atypb1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of 11th IEEE International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real Time Application October 22-26","author":"Boukerche, A.","key":"atypb2"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/333296.333339"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01245300"},{"key":"atypb5","unstructured":"UML 2.0 Superstructure Specification. 2003 August.
