Distributed virtual environments for training simulations can potentially improve team work quality besides introducing a safe environment to investigate human behavior in abnormal situations. However, the creation of such simulations is complex and expensive. Simulation reuse by means of interoperability, integrability and composability help saving money and development time. However, this is one of the greatest challenges for the simulation research area. This paper discusses and contrasts these important and complex concepts, using several examples. A tool to support the creation of interoperable and composable training simulations is introduced. A proof of concept is described using our proposed tool.
