What is An HLA-based bidding game with intelligent virtual player about?

We present the development of a bidding game application designed to improve the decision making skills of students in estimating classes by allowing them to compete both against each other and against a virtual player developed using fuzzy logic concepts. The High Level Architecture (HLA) was used to develop a distributed model of the bidding process using different components (federates) that can cooperate in a large simulation model (federation). Each federate represents a role in the bidding process: general contractors, bank, virtual players, etc. These federates simulate bidding cycle activities and can each be run on separate computers. The Bidding Game is developed in the COnstruction SYnthetic Environment (COSYE), an integrated construction simulation platform; its development was used as part of a simulation course to teach the students how to develop collaborative simulation models and how to produce a final product as a team. INTRODUCTION Accurate estimation is an important part of our construction management students' skillsets. This paper describes a Bidding Game application, designed as a training tool to improve students' decision-making skills by allowing them to b
