How is DARWARS different from virtual worlds like There.com and Massively Multi-player On-line Games (MMPOGs) like America’s Army?
Virtual Worlds are designed for player/player and player/avatar interactions in a particular context. They are not specifically designed for training purposes. MMPOG games allow players to adopt specified roles in a simulated environment, but do not provide real training support via functionality such as coaching or AAR. Both virtual worlds and MMPOGs can used for training, but will need the DARWARS framework to support training objectives.
