Modeling & Simulation Support

Abstract

This Program Element addresses projects under the Navy Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Office (NMSO). It supports technical and management initiatives 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 organization 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, M&S execution, and guidance to evolve an interoperable and reusable core M&S capability consistent with the M&S technical framework prescribed by DoD across the FYDP. DON M&S priorities include Systems Engineering and Integration, Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), and Interoperability and Requirements Development to determine the required networks, infrastructure, and data needed to support enterprise DON M&S capabilities which also leverage M&S standards, information systems, virtual environments, and T&E Augmentation in support of warfighting decision-making. Efforts are organized around three product areas: (1) Core Services: This activity provides essential planning, program management, coordination, and execution of Navy M&S efforts with other Services, the Office of Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Joint Staff, and other agencies to including policies and procedures necessary to support the creation of a robust and credible capability to create synthetic environments, accurately represent platforms and systems, predict outcomes, and provide inputs to Naval decision makers and operational users in support of numerous areas, including acquisition, analysis, training, and experimentation. (2) Community Services: This activity provides M&S community-wide services and digital ecosystems/venues to M&S policies, standards, VV&A, collaborative digital engineering and support discoverability/reuse across the DON, acquisition, analytics, training, and experimentation communities. (3) Community Experiments and Prototypes: This activity executes experiments and prototypes focusing on the advancement of M&S capabilities and technology to increase M&S efficiency and/or effectiveness in key war fighting areas.
