The Virtual System Integration Lab (VSIL) is a virtual prototyping package for modeling systems and components. Using the VSIL, users can design and work with virtual models using TACOM/TARDEC standard reference architecture components, making your hardware development less expensive and more efficient for meeting all your contract VSIL requirements.
Using VSIL users can:
- Reduce time, cost and resource needed for developing a new vehicle or system
- Design and work with virtual models
- Utilize TACOM/TARDEC standard reference architecture components
- Reduce cost and improve efficiency in the hardware design process
- Enable tradeoff analysis for cost and performance evaluation early in the design process
- Reduce demand for costly prototypes, resulting in lower non-recoverable costs
- Collaborate the design environment, allowing multi-designer collaboration
VSIL deployments support analysis, allocation and tradeoff evaluation for:
- Logistic planning
- Life cycle management
- Vetronics (Data Control and Data Distribution, Computing and Knowledge Resources, Controls and Displays, Power Management and Distribution)
- Intelligent Agents (human/machine)
- Workload Allocation (human/machine)
- Physical Allocation (power, weight, volume, thermal, and other environmental metrics)
Cybernet's VSIL offers many powerful features not supported by other virtual prototyping solutions:
- Interoperability with Matlab/Simulink
- Interoperability with HLA 1.3
- Interoperability with HLA 1516
- Complete Java-based system, allowing use on any computer platform
- Tools for use by varying operator skill levels, freeing your expert developers from running tests
- Support for a wide range of simulation paradigms (Discrete Events, Continuous Time, Distributed Discrete Events, etc.)
- Support for using TACOM standard reference architecture Intelligent Ground Vehicle (IGV) components to build models
