A synchronous startup schedule strategy for distributed simulation system

A notion of logic time and logic time stamp are introduced to control running order for single-period and multi-periods simulation system. Then a synchronous startup schedule strategy is designed, and its technology essential and implementation flow are discussed. According to the time stamp and the simulation logic time of interactive data, the measurement and compensation method of time-delay in schedule are proposed. Finally, the designed schedule strategy has been successfully applied to a ship motion distributed virtual simulation system.
