Joint Modeling and Simulation System (JMASS), Joint Initial Requirements Document (JIRD)

Abstract

The Joint Modeling and Simulation System (JMASS) requirements will evolve through multiple stages. The purpose of this document is to define the initial overall programmatic requirements, high level capabilities, operation and support requirements for JMASS. Pilot projects will be used to refine and further specify the requirements in this document. Implementation of the specific requirements will be accomplished by a Program Office. JMASS is designed to support acquisition as defined in the Department of Defense (DoD) Regulation 500O.2-R. JMASS provides a software architecture for the development of models, configuration of models into simulations, execution of simulations, and post processing of data obtained from the simulation. The JMASS software facilitates interoperability with other simulations in accordance with DoD accepted standards. Additionally, it defines and implements a set of standards and documentation for JMASS compliant models. It provides tools that assist in the development and application of reusable models and model components. Standards defined and implemented by JMASS shall include: (1) Guidelines for the development of JMASS compliant models and documentation. These guidelines are called the Software Structural Model (SSM); (2) Tools to implement the SSM; (3) Model-to-model and model-to-system interfaces; (4) Tool-to-system interfaces; (5) Guidelines and tools for porting legacy models to JMASS; and (6) Man machine interface modeling.
