Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for query-based interest in a simulation are presented. An entity comprising one or more components may be simulated. The entity may be modified to include an interest component indicating, for each component in the one or more components of the entity, a query subscription to an entity database. The query subscription may comprise one or more queries. Each query of the one or more queries may comprise a component value that qualifies another entity for inclusion in a query result, and a frequency for receiving, from the entity database, updates on the query result.

Simulation systems and methods using query-based interest

Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for query-based interest in a simulation are presented. Entities may be simulated on workers, and each entity may comprise one or more components. A simulation system may run bridges on one or more machines, and the bridges may be configured to facilitate data communications between the workers and one or more entity databases. Each worker may be assigned to a different bridge. The system may modify one or more entities to include an interest component, and the interest component may indicate a query subscription to the one or more entity databases, which may affect the communication between bridges and workers. The interest component may also or alternatively indicate a frequency for receiving, from the one or more entity databases, updates for the query subscription.
