The ACETEF HLA Interface

Abstract

The Air Combat Environment Test and Evaluation Facility (ACETEF) at Patuxent River Naval Air Station received a certificate of High Level Architecture (HLA) compliance in September 1999. The software vehicle for attaining compliance for the ACETEF simulation objective model (SOM) was the ACETEF FHL SWEG/JIMM interface. This interface is written in a flexible architecture which permits straightforward federation object model (FOM) extensions to the SOM object classes and the addition of FOM specific methods to the SOM base classes. The FOM specific extensions can be archived apart from the interface and re-used as needed. This interface is currently being used in the Joint Test and Training Capability Assessment (JTTCA) and the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Virtual Strike Warfare Environment 7 (VSWE7) exercises. A description of the software architecture and the philosophy behind the architecture is described. Methodologies for FOM specific code development are discussed.
