Multi-resolution modeling (MRM) includes many different approaches. It is very well known by the Distributed Simulation community that the High Level Architecture (HLA) is an architecture designed to facilitate interoperability and software reuse. Therefore, the unit of MRM is usually the federate. Multiresolution representation of entities consists in maintaining multiple and concurrent representations of entities. As such, several approaches may be used to manage the aggregation/disaggregation processes, according to the particular needs of the simulation exercised. However, we have found that there are many approaches presented in the literature. We have to weigh many considerations when comparing the different MRM approaches. This paper introduces the different approaches and provides an experiment using constructive simulation.
