Advanced Concepts and Simulation

Abstract

This program element (PE) develops enabling technologies to create effective training capabilities for the Warfighter. The PE supports the underpinning technologies and understanding to establish architecture standards and interfaces necessary for realizing the Army vision of creating a realistic synthetic "electronic battlefield" environment for use across the spectrum of doctrine, organization, training, leader development, materiel, personnel, and facilities (DOTLM-PF). The Advanced Distributed Simulation project (project C90) focuses on advancing component technologies required for real time interactive linking within and among constructive, virtual, and live simulation and training by refining technologies for advanced distributed interactive simulation. The Modeling and Simulation for Training and Design (project D02), further develops concepts for immersive training and learning environments with the Institute for Creative Technologies (ICT) at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California. Photonics Research and Advanced Modeling and Simulation Initiatives (projects D01 and D14) fund congressional special interest items. Work in this PE complements and is fully coordinated with PE 0601104A (University and Industry Research Centers), PE 0602785A (Manpower/Personnel/Training Technology), PE 0602787A (Medical Technology), PE 0603007A (Manpower, Personnel and Training Advance Technology), and PE 0603015A (Next Generation Training & Simulation Systems). Projects D01 and D14 fund Congressional Interest Items. The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. Work in this PE is performed by the Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM), Army Research Laboratory, Human Research and Engineering Directorate, Simulation and Training Technology Center (STTC), Orlando, FL.
