Description
Summary:The progress of distributed interaction simulation is restricted by the traditional Basic Simulation Computing Resource (BSCR). It is difficult to speedily customize BSCR on demand. Aiming at this question, a BSCR management platform is proposed based on the virtualization technology. Upon the platform, users could apply for a Virtual Machine (VM) as BSCR to execute simulation application. B/S architecture is adopted by the platform. On server side, the function servers control the state and performance of the virtual machines and the web server queries the computing performance parameter, chooses relevant algorithm, dispatches virtual machine and finally guides the user into operating desktop of the VM. The structure of the platform is introduced, and the construction of the key modules is discussed in detail. In the end, a process of creating new VM is described by an interaction diagram. By adjusting the machine state, the equipment performance parameter and software environment of the VM, the platform can quickly and dynamically provide users with perfect BSCR.
