Rather than have the entire simulation within a single executable, the simulation is split into different ''Federates'', which interact with each other by a ''Run-Time Infrastructure'' (''RTI''). | Rather than have the entire simulation within a single executable, the simulation is split into different ''Federates'', which interact with each other by a ''Run-Time Infrastructure'' (''RTI''), with federates typically running in their own threads/processes. | ||
