This paper presents a distributed version of the Total Airspace and Airport Model (TAAM), where the model was geographically partitioned and run on different processors. The High Level Architecture (HLA) was the vehicle for integrating the two TAAM processes. As TAAM was originally designed as a sequential simulation, there were many challenges to overcome before it could operate in a distributed environment. Moreover, HLA was designed to federate disparate simulations, and in this study we used it to federate TAAM with itself. The paper presents the work involved in distributed TAAM, and the results obtained when TAAM was self-federated using the HLA.
