SIMULATION TECHNOLOGY (SIMTECH) PROGRAM

Abstract

The Army Simulation Technology (SIMTECH) program enhances force effectiveness by assisting Modeling and Simulation (M&S) research agencies and organizations in conducting low-cost, promising simulation technology research that is outside the scope of the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) and the Army science and technology programs. The SIMTECH program provides a source of competitive funds to Army research agencies and organizations to stimulate high quality, innovative M&S research with significant opportunity for payoff in Army war fighting capability. The SIMTECH program focuses simulation technology research initiatives on immediate short-term Army capability requirements by including a theme in the annual call for proposals. The SIMTECH program serves as a vehicle for major M&SC3I-relalted technology breakthroughs in war gaming, embedded simulation, collaboration cabability, rapid prototyping, commercial innovation and related simulation technology (M&SC3I = Modeling and Simulation Cross-Command Collaboration and Integration.) Performers of SIMTECH activities are the Army Materiel Command (AMC); the Army Corps of Engineers; the Army Research and Development Centers (ARDECs); the Army Research Institute; the Army Training and Doctrine Command Analysis Center (TRAC); the Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO-STRI); White Sands Missile Range; the Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC); Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center (NSRDEC), Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center (ECBC); and other Army agencies.
