Abstract:
Effective use of embedded simulation requires assessment of critical tradeoffs 
between processing power and simulation scope/fidelity. This paper addresses 
that concern by providing recent benchmarking results of entity scaling 
capabilities for the One Semi-Automated Forces Testbed distributed simulation 
environment on currently available processor architectures. Results indicate 
that processors which are now available in laptop computers have sufficient 
capability to simulate the quantity of entities required for Battalion-sized 
force-on-force training exercises.
