  1. XMSF and Command & Control - GIG, XBML/C4I Testbed, XDV, XMSF Profiles Dr. Andreas Tolk Old Dominion University (ODU) -Virginia Modeling Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC)

  2. Why C4ISR / M&S Interoperability • Computer Assisted Training • Embedded Training • Simulated Based Acquisition / SMART • Operational Use of M&S (Decision Support) XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  3. Global Information Grid • The Global Information Grid is defined in DODD 8100.1 • The GIG is the technical vehicle of NCW • The GIG will be globally interconnected, end-to-end set of information capabilities, associated processes, and personnel for collecting, processing, storing, disseminating and managing information on demand to Warfighters, policy makers, and support personnel XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  4. Where is M&S in the GIG XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  5. Extensible Modeling and Simulation Framework (XMSF) C4I Testbed I/ITSEC Demo

  6. What Is Battle Management Language (BML)? • BML is the unambiguous language used to: • Command and control forces and equipment conducting military operations and • To provide for situational awareness and a shared, common operational picture. • BML is applicable in the domains of • Command and Control (human forces) • Simulation Systems (simulated forces) • Robotics (robotic forces) XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  10. XMSF for U.S.JFCOM Andreas Tolk, ODU VMASC XDV – The Extensible Modeling and Simulation Framework (XMSF) Distributive Continuous Experimentation Environment (DCEE) Viewer

  11. Background • DCEE has established a framework of common terminology for the information to be exchanged between components. • The DCEE concept is open for extensions to emerging solutions. Use of XML, standardized tag-sets, web services, and web technology is part of the general concept of DCEE. • The integration of DCEE and XMSF seems to be an obvious step. XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  12. Objective of XDV • XDV is intended to proof the feasibility of the concept for a web-based, low-cost viewer using open web-technology. • Every eligible stakeholder interested in observing execution of the ongoing experiment can log into the federation and use the viewer software to follow the actual experiment. • The necessary software will be executed on a commercial off-the-shelf PC. XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  13. Components of the proposed XDV prototype • (A) Web-enabled RTI services • (B) Entity based Viewer Component • 3D representations • based on the NPS Scenario Authoring and Visualization for Advanced Graphical Environments (SAVAGE) • (C) Unit based Viewer Component 2D/3D representations similar to the Naval Visualization Program (NVP) XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  17. XMSF Profiles • XMSF profiles are • Formal technical specifications for application of interoperable web based technologies • Enabling composable and reusable modeling and simulation, and • Facilitating enterprise integration. XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003

  18. XMSF Profiles • The objectives of XMSF profiles are to: • Provide unambiguous specification of the functionality of components, and interfaces among components of the framework • Ensure interoperability between existing and new web enabled technologies, both within M&S and in related domains • Provide the necessary metadata to facilitate composability and reuse of components across multiple M&S application domains • Facilitate development of new applications and services that are functionally interchangeable with existing applications and services • Enable development of new applications and services that readily extend functionality for continuous evolution of capabilities XMSF Tolk WebSim Oct 2003
