The goal of this thesis was to create a HLA-based software framework for the creation of distributed simulations which will be used in animal behavior experiments conducted by the BioroboticsLab of the Freie Universität Berlin. For this target, specifications based on the expected use cases have been specified, coupled with a market analysis. This led to the decision to develop a custom software. The thesis describes the created software, the key elements of its architecture and its main features, as well as evaluating several performance aspects.
