Abstract
A crucial issue for grid-based virtual wargame collaborative environment is that of mapping federate jobs to grid nodes efficiently. Because there exits large amount of interactions among federates, it is a challenging work to design an efficient federate mapping strategy. In this paper, we established an objective function for federate job mapping which takes into consideration not only the load of grid nodes, but also network utilization. Experimental results show that the proposed federate job mapping strategy can contribute to load balancing of the virtual wargame collaborative environment.
