Abstract

The emergence of the World-Wide Web (WWW) has produced a new computing environment. This has motivated researchers in many disciplines to re-evaluate their approaches and techniques in light of the new facilities provided and the new frontiers allowed by the new WWW technology. Web-based simulation is one such new concept that has evolved in the new web era and that has attracted the interest of many researchers and practitioners in the computer simulation field. The appearance of the network-oriented programming language, Java, and of distributed object technologies like the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) has had major effects on the state of simulation practice. These technologies have the potential to significantly alter the way we think of, develop, and apply simulation as a problem solving technique and a decision support tool. In this paper, we review the aspects of the WWW technology that may have important effects on simulation. We then survey the concept of web-based simulation and its current and suggested approaches and applications. 1.
