ALSP Common Module (ACM)
The ALSP Common Module (ACM) provides a common interface for all simulations and contains the essential functionality for ALSP. One ACM instance exists for each simulation in a confederation. ACM services require time management and object management; they include:
- Coordinate simulations joining and departing from a confederation..
- Coordinate simulation local time with confederation time.
- Filter incoming messages, so that simulations receive only messages of interest.
- Coordinate ownership of object attributes, and permit ownership migration.
- Enforce attribute ownership so that simulations report values only for attributes they own.

Famous quotes containing the word common:
“Whenever there are in any country uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right. The earth is given as a common stock for man to labor and live on.... The small landowners are the most precious part of a state.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
