Large Network TMS
•Based on the topology, mobility and background traffic described the TMS was simulated in OPNET
•The effect of increased load is readily apparent in maritime networks, with the TMS delay almost doubling from nominal to high background traffic
•Enhanced and detailed modes have a long delay which may be acceptable if the information is not being used interactively
•Unlikely to be sufficient for problem solving purposes
