Nuclear & Radiological Effects

Abstract

Net-Centric Architecture includes three functional areas 1) Integrated Weapons of Mass Destruction Toolset (IWMDT), 2) IWMDT Codes, and 3) Software Assurance and Certification and Accreditation. The IWMDT functional area develops the architecture, defines and implements the standards to consolidate validated Defense Threat Reduction Agency tools, and through this architecture, enables rapid access for planning, emergency response, and assessment capabilities. These capabilities are used by a wide range of planners, managers, and operational and technical personnel facing the full spectrum of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosives threats. The IWMDT Codes functional area develops analysis and simulation codes, and then integrates the codes into the IWMDT architecture. These efforts are unique to this effort across the Department of Defense (DoD) and directly supports analysis capabilities in the Office of the Secretary Defense (OSD) Studies and Analysis Group, and Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (OSD CAPE), US Pacific Command and United States Forces Korea offices, Republic of Korea Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Defense Taiwan, as well as providing unique simulation capabilities to US Joint Forces Command and the Air Force Distributed Mission Operation Center. This sub-project extends research and development to system development and demonstration.
