面向Agent的时间管理算法研究

随着分布式仿真技术在深度和广度上的发展，如何有效地实现仿真体之间的时间同步成为目前分布式仿真技术中最为引人关注的重点和难点所在。本文运用面向Agent的分析方法研究分布式仿真中的时间管理。在分析了分布式仿真系统中仿真Agent之间关系的基础上，提出一种利用仿真Agent之间的因果关系协调时间推进的仿真时间管理算法。该算法利用各个仿真主体之间的制约关系，进行分组管理，层次化地协调仿真Agent之间时间推进，从而可以较好地提高仿真系统执行效率。

The Agent-oriented Time Management Algorithm

With the development of the distributed interactive simulation technology in extent and profundity, time management will remain a core research area in the future. This paper introduces the conception of Agent into the distributed simulation, and uses it to analysis the time management in simulation. This paper presents a method to exploit the relationship among simulation Agents. A simulation time management algorithm exploiting the causal constraint among simulation Agents is developed. The time management algorithm can improve the performance of the distributed simulation.
