Does DHS participate in SIMNET, Mark Hamilton 134.67.6.15 21:07, 18 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Asssuming by DHS you mean "Department of Homeland Security", then it does not, since the DHS didn't exist in the timeframe when SIMNET was in active development. You could ask the same question on a page related to Distributed Interactive Simulation —Preceding unsigned comment added by RollandWaters (talkcontribs) 19:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Additional details about Delta Graphics

edit

Delta Graphics was founded by Drew Johnston (SW development), Mike Cyrus (President), both from the Boeing Aerospace Company/Graphics Lab, and Jay Beck (CTO and VP), a 3D graphics consultant of Softtool Consulting. The GDP, custom developed for SIMNET won out over existing Silicon Graphics HW because of its low cost and because its architecture made it the first simulator display processor to use a frame buffer and Z-buffer algorithms on a per display channel basis to show the simulated view. This was made possible because the cost of RAM at that time dropped in price significantly.
