The DIS Family of Standards
DIS is defined under IEEE Standard 1278:
- IEEE 1278-1993 - Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Application protocols
- IEEE 1278.1-1995 - Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Application protocols
- IEEE 1278.1-1995 - Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Application protocols
- IEEE 1278.1A-1998 - Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Application protocols Errata (May 1998)
- IEEE-1278.2-1995 - Standard for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Communication Services and Profiles
- IEEE 1278.3-1996 - Recommended Practice for Distributed Interactive Simulation - Exercise Management and Feedback
- IEEE 1278.4-1997 - Recommended Practice for Distributed Interactive - Verification Validation & Accreditation
- IEEE 1278.5-XXXX - Fidelity Description Requirements (never published)
In addition to the IEEE standards, the Simulation Interoperability Standards Organization (SISO) maintains and publishes an "enumerations and bit encoded fields" document yearly. This document is referenced by the IEEE standards and used by DIS, TENA and HLA federations. Both PDF and XML versions are available.

Famous quotes containing the words dis, family and/or standards:
“I had crossed de line of which I had so long been dreaming. I was free; but dere was no one to welcome me to de land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land, and my home after all was down in de old cabin quarter, wid de ole folks, and my brudders and sisters. But to dis solemn resolution I came; I was free, and dey should be free also; I would make a home for dem in de North, and de Lord helping me, I would bring dem all dere.”
—Harriet Tubman (c. 1820–1913)
“Our society is not a community, but merely a collection of isolated family units.”
—Valerie Solanas (b. 1940)
“In full view of his television audience, he preached a new religion—or a new form of Christianity—based on faith in financial miracles and in a Heaven here on earth with a water slide and luxury hotels. It was a religion of celebrity and showmanship and fun, which made a mockery of all puritanical standards and all canons of good taste. Its standard was excess, and its doctrines were tolerance and freedom from accountability.”
—New Yorker (April 23, 1990)
