Abstract

Multi-Resolution Modeling (MRM) is a modeling technology that creates a model that expresses the same phenomenon at more than two different resolutions. Since the advent of distributed simulation systems, the MRM study began in the military field, where the modeling and simulation (M&S) was most actively developed and was recognized as an essential area in the integrated system of live, virtual and constructive (LVC) simulations. Models of the various resolutions had already been built based on the characteristics and training purposes of each weapon system, and the interoperability of these models was a primary task in the M&S community. In this study, we report the results from a systematic review of the MRM to address two questions: (1) What research has been done towards the MRM for integrating LVC system? (2) What are the research and technology challenges for the MRM implementation in the future? In total, 22 papers have been identified and studied in this review by following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The structures of the significant 20 MRM implementation experiments in those papers are analyzed based on the relationship between the MRM and integrating the LVC system being implemented in the military. We explored the various issues related to the MRM. Then, we discussed the direction in which the MRM should move forward, comparing civilian modeling techniques with those being used in the military.

Highlights

  • At the end of the twentieth century, when modeling and simulation implementations were increasing, research on distributed simulation systems linking two or more simulations began in earnest

  • We provide a systematic review of the Multi-Resolution Modeling (MRM) for the integration of LVC systems

  • Each experiment used the low-resolution model (LRM) and high-resolution models (HRM) separately for their project, and the suitable simulation architecture used for interoperability was described in each article

Summary

Introduction

At the end of the twentieth century, when modeling and simulation implementations were increasing, research on distributed simulation systems linking two or more simulations began in earnest. These studies were conducted in the military, which seeks to build a huge synthetic battlefield for practical and effective training. The most representative effort was the integration of LVC systems. They have developed standard simulation architectures to link these simulations. Since most of the simulation models used at that time were of fixed level resolution, problems were identified due to the different resolutions. The efforts to connect these models have evolved into Multi-Resolution
