Equipment Command Simulation Using Workflow Management Software

摘要

Based on the introduction of workflow management software, this paper analyzed the feasibility for simulating Equipment Command Office (ECO) operations with workflow product-LiveFlow. It demonstrated the simulation process and simulation object model (SOM) of ECO explicitly. Consequently, the ECO federate was designed using LiveFlow within HLA infrastructure. The "Human-in-Loop" simulation was realized by invoking the business process object (BPO) library of LiveFlow. This research is significant to the deployment, training and working-efficiency evaluation of ECO staffs. It's also the foundation of business process recngineering (BPR) of ECO.
