(1) The executing software on a host computer that models all or part of the representation of one or more simulation entities. The simulation application represents or "simulates" real-world phenomena for the purpose of training or experimentation. Examples include manned vehicle (virtual) simulators, computer generated forces (constructive), environment simulators, and computer interfaces between a Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) network and real (live) equipment. The simulation application receives and processes information concerning entities created by peer simulation applications through the exchange of DIS PDUs. More than one simulation application may simultaneously execute on a host computer. (2) The application layer protocol entity that implements standard DIS protocol. Syn: simulation. [DIS; IEEE 1278.1]
(1) Kukukhutshwa kwe-software kwikhompyutha enako oko efuzisela onke amalungu omelo lwezinto ezikhoyo okanye enye. Ukusetyenziswa kwemfaniso kumele oknaye "kufanisa" isenzeko sehlabathi lokwenene ukwenzela uqeqesho okanye ukuba namava. Imizekelo iquka iimfaniso zezithuthi ezinabantu (bokwenyani), imikhosi elungiselelwa ngekhompyutha (ngokwakhaya), iimfaniso zokusingqongileyo, kunye nezixhobo ezisebenzisanayo zekhompyutha phakathi kwemfaniso esebenzisanayo yenethwekhi ye-DIS kunye nezixhobo (eziphilayo). Ukusetyenziswa kwemfaniso kufumana kwaye kuqhubekekisela phambili ulwazi olumayela nezinto ezikhoyo ezidalwe lusetyenziso lwezinto ezikhoyo ngokuthi kutshintshiselwane ngee-DIS PDU. Ngokusetyenziswa kwemfaniso engaphezulu kwesinye kungakhupha ngaxeshanye kwikhompyutha ekusetyenzwa kuyo. (2) Into ekhoyo yomthetho wokuziphatha ekumgangatho wokusetyenziswa ezalisekisa imithetho yokuziphatha ye-DIS. i-Syn: imfaniso. [DIS; IEEE 1278.1]
