Design, Implementation and Execution Results for Simulations and C2 Information Systems Connectivity Experiments (SINCE). Experiment 2

Abstract

In this paper we describe the design, implementation, and execution results obtained from the SINCE experiment 2b (SINCEx2b) which took place 17-28 July, 2006 at the Fort Dix facility of the NJ Army National Guard. The objective of SINCE is to conduct R&D experimentation in support of net-centric battle command interoperability and collaboration. The primary approach of this experiment is to build upon the success of the previous SINCE experiments by more than doubling the complexity of the scenario, the breadth and depth of information exchanges as well as the number of federates and interfaces. The number of coalition partners has also increased from two to five. An integral part of the solution is the establishment and refinement of a methodology by which the various information architectures would be harmonized within federations and across federations. The infrastructure for SINCEx2 is embodied in Proxy Servers and the Coalition Portal as federates that collectively include the various adapters and filters that mediate between the otherwise incompatible heterogeneous interfaces inherent in the selected federate systems using a common digitized Operations Order (OPORD) oriented model encoded as an XML schema.
