	abstract = {VTS Simulator Training has been a part of VTS operator training program according to IMO/IALA documents. It is a developing direction of VTS simulator to offering a more real-like simulative training as in actual practices. This paper proposed an approach to integrate VTS simulator with Internet system of multiple ship-handling simulators. Utilizing Agent/MAS technology, VTS simulators will play the role of VTS in participating in the interactive simulated training based on Internet. It facilitates a real environment in the VTS training and thus entails better effects.},
