Global Information Enterprise (GIE) Modeling and Simulation (GIESIM)

Abstract

The objective of this effort was the integration of communication and network modeling and simulation (M&S) toolkits into the Global Information Enterprise (GIE) Modeling and Simulation (GIESim) framework to create effective user analysis of candidate communications architectures and technologies. Operational tactical communication scenarios to demonstrate, evaluate, and validate the GIESim were developed in a team environment that brought together M&S and communications subject area expertise from highly technical companies and AF groups with the know-how necessary to leverage existing experience and emerging communications models. GIESim included AFRL employees at Rome and Wright Research Sites and large and small scientific companies. The final phase of the effort was the merger of GIESim Joint Tactical Information Distribution System (JTIDS) simulation with Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF), adding tactical communications modeling (TCM) to JSAF. TCM plays an increasingly critical role in military operations.
