ABSTRACT
The IEEE 1516-2010 High Level Architecture for distributed simulation is used to facilitate the development of large-scale simulations. However, there is a steep learning curve. The annual Simulation Exploration Experience (SEE) presents the opportunity for multiple international student-led teams to gain experience in developing distributed simulations in an interesting lunar-based scenario. To support the student learning process, a prototype HLA Development Kit has been created that has the goal of reducing the complexity of distributed simulation design and implementation. A student-led team used the Kit to create a lunar excavator federate using agent-based simulation implemented in REPAST. The excavator federate successfully interoperated with the University of Liverpool UAV during SEE 2015. This paper presents a short overview of the Kit and experiences in developing the lunar excavator federate.
