A system and method automates the process of objectively measuring the subjective quality of packetized telecommunication signals as a function of network quality-of-service (QoS) parameters, implementation choices, and other related parameters. Computer-based simulation may be used in conjunction with objective quality measurement algorithms and pre-recorded reference or test signals. A system (300) employing this simulation method does not require the use of human subjects in subjective quality evaluation. The system and method are applicable to various types of telecommunication signals such as, for example, voice, video, audio, and multimedia.

Embodiments of the invention relate generally to computer-based simulations and synthetic environment generation, and more particularly, to a system, a computer-readable medium, a method and an apparatus for generating synthetic environments in a distributed architecture to, among other things, introduce dynamic content. In some embodiments, computer readable medium facilitates transactions in massively multiplayer online games. The computer readable medium can include executable instructions for execution by one or more processors to receive data to perform a transaction between participants associated with the synthetic environment. The executable instructions also can be configured to transact an exchange of a first subset of game data for the first participant and a second subset of the game data for a second participant. The exchange of subsets of the game data between the first participant and the second participant can occur in the common process.

A computer based simulation system for virtual training for vehicle crews is disclosed. The Vehicle Crew Training System (VCTS) simulates crew positions for different military ground and air vehicles. Two or more crewman modules are networked together to support a partial or full vehicle crew. The crewman modules are self-contained devices that are modular in hardware and software design, easily reconfigurable, and require minimal facility space, allowing use in restricted environments such as trailers. The VCTS is modular at the crew position level; crewman modules are added or deleted as required to meet a particular training need.

A method of conducting a sequence of linked simulation operations, utilizing a computer-based simulation model, commences with the performance of a first simulation operation to generate an output condition. A further simulation operation, which is defined to sequentially follow the first simulation operation, is then formed utilizing the simulation model. The second simulation operation at least partially and automatically inherits the output condition generated by the first simulation operation as an input condition. In this way, the second simulation operation commences with a configuration captured from a preceding simulation operation as an input condition. Multiple simulation operations may at least partially inherit a configuration from the first simulation operation.

Two or more crewman modules are networked together to support a partial or full vehicle crew. The crewman modules are self-contained devices that are modular in hardware and software design, easily reconfigurable, and that require minimal facility space, allowing use in restricted environments such as trailers. The VCTS is modular at the crew position level; crewman modules are added or deleted as required to meet a particular training need. One of the crewman modules can be a gunner module, which provides an unrestricted view of the simulated environment to the gunner by means of a display and a simulated vehicle-mounted weapon.

A computer-based simulation process executes a checkpoint operation while simulating behavior of an electronic circuit by forking an active checkpoint process having the same state as the original simulation process. While simulation time for the simulation process continues to increase after executing the checkpoint operation, simulation time for the checkpoint process remains unchanged so that the checkpoint process remains in the state of the simulation at the simulation time it executed the checkpoint operation (the “checkpoint time”). When the checkpoint process subsequently receives a request to resume simulating the circuit, it forks a new simulation process that mimics the original simulation process as of checkpoint time, and the new simulation process then begins to advance its simulation time, thereby enabling it to re-simulate behavior of the electronic circuit previously simulated by the original simulation process starting from the checkpoint time.
