Welcome to the USIP Open Simulation Platform (OSP) Documentation
The USIP OSP is an open source software tool to allow anyone to quickly create, conduct and share online training simulations.
The USIP OSP is free software. The BSD style license for it is located on our Google Code Site.
For a video introduction to the vision, please check our youtube video.
This is the central repository for all of our documentation.
