Aggregate Level Simulation Protocol (ALSP)
- developed by
MITRE in early 1990's to link existing
warfare and training simulations
- reliable, text-based protocol
- stream interface (no API)
- higher-level abstractions (inheritance, attribute-level subscriptions)
- time management
- most projects developed a framework on top of ALSP primitives
