Modeling & Simulation Support

Abstract

This Program Element addresses projects under the Navy Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Office. It supports technical and management initiatives directed by Congress, Department of Defense (DOD), Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV), and Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) with the aim of bringing organization, focus, and efficiency to the development and use of M&S throughout the Navy and DoD. It provides a central agency for the formulation and implementation of policy and guidance in M&S, and represents Navy interests in Joint and other agency initiatives. It funds efforts to define and coordinate the corporate Navy M&S policy and guidance to evolve an interoperable and reusable core M&S capability consistent with the M&S technical framework prescribed by DOD. Efforts are organized around three product areas: (1) Core Services: This activity provides essential planning and coordination of M&S efforts with other Services, the Office of Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Joint Staff, and other agencies to develop policies and procedures necessary for M&S standards, visibility, and potential reuse across DoD. (2) Community Services: This activity provides M&S subject matter expert support embedded in the DON M&S Communities to recommend implementations for M&S policies, standards, VV&A, and reuse within their Community and to ensure that the wider DON and DoD are aware (visibility) of the M&S products and services, initiatives, processes, and standards. (3) Community Experiments and Prototypes: This activity conducts experiments and prototypes aimed at determining the feasibility and applicability of proposed standards or technical approaches to Navy M&S and investigates Service-unique requirements for standards or guidance to achieve M&S efficiencies.
