Architecture for a Distributed Integrated Test Bed

Abstract

M&S is used in the German Armed Forces for supporting processes in the following application areas: analysis and planning, procurement, missions, and training and exercises. These four areas of application are closely connected to each other, especially in the context of supporting the method of Concept Development and Experimentation (CD&E), support of networking and linking national and international simulations and information systems, the entailing support for the realization of Network Centric Warfare (NCW). Therefore, the further development of M&S towards interconnected systems by applying a Distributed and Integrated Test Bed is indispensable to achieve the required capabilities and objectives. Such a test bed can be used as an armament test bed for a fast and effective evaluation of technical and technological solutions in a realistic and operational test environment to support all phases of the development and procurement cycle of material and equipment as well as the other application areas of M&S.
