Computer Assisted Exercises - Background

Abstract

This presentation contains general background information describing computer assisted exercises. It provides a basic definition, list key characteristics and applications of computer assisted exercise systems and discusses why CAX systems are increasingly useful for defense applications. CAX systems comprise several advanced information technology areas: Human Computer Interface Technologies, Command and Control Systems and their Integration, Simulation Systems, and Exercise Support Tools. This presentation reviews how each area contributes to CAX systems, and highlights issues involved in further development.
