Modeling And Simulation Infrastructure Technology
Abstract
Efforts in this project mature and demonstrate state-of-the-art and simulation systems. These efforts include a distributed Modeling and Simulation (M&S) environment that integrates a collection of multi-fidelity models and simulations and tools that map to an evolving architecture and M&S activities to support decisions throughout the acquisition life-cycle. This provides a unifying M&S architecture that synchronizes and integrates multi-resolution modeling applications such as Live, Virtual, and Constructive experimentation. This effort ultimately comprises a portfolio focused on researching cutting edge M&S methods to enable the Army and DoD to perform critical System of Systems (SoS) analysis, experimentation, technology tradeoffs, capability assessments, concept development, and training that saves time and resources while increasing the effectiveness of acquisition and training activities. Funding increase in FY13 reflects the use of Advanced Distributed Simulation Environments to support development of enterprise architectures for holistic modeling and simulation of dismounted Soldier protection, lethality with cognitive and physical performance. Efforts in this program element support the Army science and technology Soldier portfolio. The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering science and technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research Laboratory (ARL), Human Research and Engineering Directorate, Simulation and Training Technology Center (STTC), Orlando, Florida.
