Soldier Representation in Modeling and Simulation
Abstract
This multi-year project had 3 primary objectives: 1) to leverage Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) student and faculty research to improve the modeling of the individual Soldier and small units; 2) to provide support to the Soldier Focus Area Collective Team (FACT); and 3) to develop centralized lines of communication between consumers and developers of infantry (individual combatant) models, simulation, and data. We successfully drew numerous NPS students and faculty into Soldier M&S-related topics and, as a result, successfully increased the visibility of Soldier M&S at NPS, leading to a great number of Soldier M&S advancements. Additionally, we developed a prototype collaborative web portal to facilitate communication between Soldier M&S researchers, developers and consumers. This report summarizes the numerous student, faculty, and internal efforts to address Soldier M&S issues; our role in the Soldier FACT; and the development of the prototype web portal.
