In Modelling and Simulation the main standard for interoperability is HLA (High Level Architecture): this paper is focused on interoperability combining different simulators to create a modular and scalable approach for complex scenarios characterized by heavy computational workload. The case study addressed a within an extended maritime framework (EMF) including underwater operations, cyber warfare, autonomous systems and traditional vessels. The paper presents the architecture of the federation and also provides a performance analysis of the implementation when using different RTIs as well as a methodological approach to identify the most reliable and performing solution for the interoperability within this context.
