Real time
simulation is the new era of simulation and what are the various areas where
real time simulation will be used and what are the various requirements of
achieving the real time simulation?
Ans: Real-time Simulation refers to a computer model
of a physical system that can execute at the same rate as actual "wall
clock" time. In other words, the computer model runs at the same rate as
the actual physical system. For example if a tank takes 10 minutes to fill in
the real-world, the simulation would take 10 minutes as well.
The Telemedicine and Advanced Technology
Research Center and the U.S. Army’s Simulation, Training, and Instrumentation
Command (STRICOM) co-hosted a conference at the Morningside Inn, a remote
facility ensconced among the rolling pastureland of Frederick County, Maryland,
USA. Actual and potential end users,
researchers, and representatives from materiel developers and other government
agencies – thirty-three of them, presented their concepts, needs, and
challenges about how modeling and simulation should be developed to meet
military – and private sector -- medical needs.
IN the keynote address delivered
by Major General John Parker, Commanding General, Medical Research and Materiel
Command, MG Parker compared the potential impact of the Medical Modeling &
Simulation (MM&S) field to that of the human genome. By meeting’s end, there was a strong feeling
that the MM&S potential to improve healthcare training was higher than
originally envisioned. The skyrocketing
growth of the MM&S community of interest since that time has confirmed that
belief.
The mission of the Telemedicine
and Advanced Technology Research Center is to “explore medical science and
engineering technologies ahead of programmed research, leveraging other
programs to maximize benefits to military medicine.” One of its major research
portfolios is Medical Simulation and Training Technology. The vision for this portfolio is to
facilitate a paradigm shift in medical training, from a subjective mode of skills
assessment to a curriculum-aligned, metrics-driven, objective system to assess
proficiency of skills -- both cognitive and psychomotor – from the foxhole to
the operating room and beyond.
