Modeling and simulation permeate all areas of business, science and engineering. With the increase in the scale and complexity of simulations, large amounts of computational resources are required, and collaborative model development is needed, as multiple parties could be involved in the development process. The Grid provides a platform for coordinated resource sharing and application development and execution. This paper survey existing technologies in modeling and simulation, and it focus on interoperability and composability of simulation components for both simulation development and execution. The paper also presents the recent work on an HLA-based simulation framework on the Grid, and discusses the issues to achieve composability.
