Immersive Innovation: Exploring Interactive Virtual Reality through Distributed Simulations
Résumé
rious sectors, focusing particularly on distributed simulation (DS). The increasing
importance of DS has been emphasized in response to evolving industrial, healthcare,
and services settings. By leveraging DS, the integration of heterogeneous simulations
enhances the effectiveness and efficiency of individual and classical simulations. In
particular, this chapter introduces a DS that seamlessly combines two distinct simulation
methods within a virtual reality (VR) environment. This integration enables users
to fully immerse themselves in a 3D digital twin environment. Two case studies were
conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the developed DS system. The first case
study focused on the implementation of DS in a hemodialysis unit, while the second
case study examined its application in an intensive care unit. AnyLogic has been
utilized for developing both discrete event and agent-based simulations, while the
Unity platform has been employed for VR environment creation. In order to ensure
smooth integration and synchronization, as well as address the demanding computational
requirements, a network-based DS system has been implemented based on the
high-level architecture—an IEEE standard for DS.
