SISO-STD-017-2022: Standard for Web Live, Virtual, Constructive (WebLVC) Protocol
SISO-STD-017-2022 describes an interoperability protocol that allows simulation applications, including web-based applications, to communicate with each other via a WebLVC server and an object model. Because the WebLVC server uses common web standards, developers of connected applications do not have to learn the intricacies of communicating via simulation standards or utilize any proprietary middleware libraries. WebLVC specifies a standard way of encoding object update messages, interaction messages, and administrative messages as JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) objects, which are passed between client and server, as well as a basic model of objects and interactions. The WebLVC Standard Data Model is compatible with SISO-STD-001.1-2015, Standard for Real-time Platform Reference Federation Object Model (RPR FOM) and IEEE Standard 1278.1-2012, IEEE Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation--Application Protocols. However, WebLVC is data model agnostic and allows users to extend the standard data model or substitute an entirely different one. WebLVC may interoperate with other simulation protocols and environments through the server itself or a connected gateway application.
