Abstract:
This paper introduces a Domain Specific Language (DSL) for describing the physical environment required in maritime co-simulation scenarios. This language helps simulation scenario modelers intuitively describe the physical environment which they wish their vessels to act in.The modelers can write programs to specify which environmental elements should be present in a simulation scenario, and how these elements should vary within the spatio-temporal span of the scenario. An environment synthesis framework is built based on this language. It uses programs written in this language to compose dynamic environmental fields. Thus, scenario modelers can focus on the simulation models they want to explore, while still have full control of the environment in their simulation scenarios.
