Innovative Training Concepts for Use in Distributed Interactive Simulation Environments

Abstract

This report describes innovative approaches for conducting training using emerging simulation technology. It is intended as a forward looking reference for training developers and trainers interested in conducting specific types of training exercises within a Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) environment. The report characterize major trends in training requirements within the Army community, presents five innovative training concepts that can be structured within a DIS environment for delivery of five types of training exercises, and describes the implementation and tryout of one of these five concepts, an Information Management Exercise (IMEX). Innovative training concepts, Information management exercises, Distributed interactive simulation, Simulation-Based Training, Automated command, Control and communication, Training tools.
