M&S Foundations

Abstract

Modeling and Simulation Foundations (MSF) focuses on integrating foundational capabilities needed to improve the usefulness of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) capabilities derived from the Warfighter Readiness (WR) thrust. The efforts supporting the MSF thrust include both concept exploration and development. MSF provides the capability to rapidly and efficiently create realistic and accurate synthetic operational battlespaces to support the full spectrum of activities associated with concept development to acquisition and testing through composite training and mission rehearsal. The Air, Space, and Cyberspace Constructive Environment-Information Operations Suite (ACE-IOS) provides the authoritative representation of Air Force information operations. ACE-IOS is comprised of models that support training and mission rehearsal for the Air Force, Joint Task Force commanders, and Combatant Commands (COCOM) battle staffs during Joint and Service exercises and experimentations. Simulation and Analysis Facility (SIMAF) focuses on fostering M&S tools, data, and infrastructure to enable high confidence acquisition of capabilities to support the joint warfighter. This includes Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) infrastructure, tools and processes supporting LVC events, and models, tools, data, simulations/stimulation to support requirements definition, systems engineering and test activities. Activities include M&S support for studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning. These efforts will enable more efficient delivery of effective capabilities to the warfighter while reducing the time and resources required for design, development, test and evaluation, maintainability and sustainment.
