SE Core OneSAF Integration Update

1. Synthetic Environment (SE) Core SE Core OneSAF Integration Update Angela Chang Peggy Hughley

2. SE Core Mission Support the Training of our Warfighters by providing: • OneSAF Integration into AVCATT and CCTT and the development of virtual OneSAF composition as the standard computer generated forces for the virtual domain. • Development of a standard Terrain Database (TDB) generation process to create a non-proprietary, open format, image generator (IG) independent, Master TDB (MTDB) consumable by virtual simulations, within a total development time of 96 hours. • The development of a Virtual Simulation Architecture (VSA) to provide a Common Virtual Environment (CVE) that links system and non-system simulations into a fully integrated and interoperable training capability. • Development of Common Virtual Components (CVC) that will reduce redundancy, increase realism, and facilitate an integrated live, virtual, constructive training environment. (LVC TE)

3. Accomplishments SinceLast Briefing • Delivered in FY07: • OneSAF Integration • Environmental Runtime Component • COE Behaviors • Common Simulation Management • After Action Review CVC • Long Haul Network CVC • C4I Adapter CVC • Delivered in FY08: • Scenario Generation Tool (SGT) CVC

5. SGT Purpose of EffortPOC Gina Moerk moerkg@se-core.net • To develop a Scenario Generation Tool (SGT) that meets the virtual training requirements for the Advanced Gunnery Training System (AGTS) • Output a Scenario File Format (in XML) to meet exercise requirements for multiple gunnery systems • Read in legacy scenario files for updates • Ability to Create, Modify, and Verify scenario files • Provide a user interface to be used by students and instructors • Provide point-to-point and field-of-view LOS Capability • Provide a 2D map view of the scenario file for verification • Provide a 3D view of the scenario file for verification

6. SGT System Design

7. OneSAF Extensions for SGT • Extended OneSAF’s Privileges Architecture to a data driven approach • Added new Gunnery Behaviors reusing the existing primitive and composite Behaviors • Added new Unit Compositions reusing the existing entity compositions • Integrated 3D Viewer reusing the DIS Framework • Converted AGTS CTDB into OTF • Extended the SORD and the MCT to include Entity’s having malfunctions • Extended the SORD to contain Weather Attributes • Added a Translator to read and write Gunnery Legacy Scenario Files and convert it to SORD (Only support AGTS in this instance) • Modified Directory Services to enforce password security rules • Added usability improvements

8. C4I CVC Purpose of EffortPOC Jeff Conner connerj@se-core.net • Provide data communications between the Tactical Internet (TI) and the virtual simulation • Translate C4I messages from live C4I systems, connected to the TI, to the VSA Simulation Network Protocol for use within a virtual simulation • Provide bridge between the internal elements of a Training System and the external tactical C4ISR equipment within a Tactical Operations Center (TOC) • Includes data format conversions, data validation, and communications standards, ensuring that messages passing between the live and virtual environments are comprehensible by recipients on both sides of the TII.

9. C4I CVC System Design • OneSAF C4I Adapter provides the capability to: • Interface with Tactical C2 Equipment • Ability to Parse Tactical Messages • Ability to Translate Tactical Messages via Joint Mapper Engine (JME) • Ability to Route Tactical Messages • SE Core provides the capability to: • Model Signal Degradation based on Radio Capabilities via Interchangeable Radio Systems Models. (Composability allowing for varying fidelity modeling). • Model Message routing on the Tactical Internet via Interchangeable Tactical Network Models. (Composability allowing for varying fidelity modeling). • Support multiple message parsers at runtime within the C2 Adapter for Baselines not in CMP’s control. • Communicate with Virtual Simulation Nodes via V-DIS and other DIS Dialects (AVCATT DIS etc.) • Radio Communication Family PDUs • SIMAN PDUs

10. OneSAF Extensions for C4I CVC • Extracted the C4I Adapter from OneSAF • Added simulation side acknowledgement in a new bidirectional acknowledgement system. • Enhanced message pass through capabilities to support complete bidirectional pass through. • Added runtime multi-parser support. • Encapsulated radio and network capabilities for modeling purposes. • Added support for BFT-based systems. • Added support for AVCATT VMF to both Adapter and Mapper Tool.

11. ERC Integration Purpose of EffortPOC Matt Reilly reillym@se-core.net • Provide a common SNE component for virtual applications • CCTT and AVCATT use different SNE components with different software features, different terrain formats/support, different runtime communication protocols • ERC is highly reusable in terms of applicable software features in non-OneSAF systems • ERC Integration puts AVCATT, CCTT, and OneSAF on common terrain (OTF) • ERC Integration included AVCATT and CCTT Components including the SAF and Manned Modules • Convert Databases from legacy formats to OTF

12. ERC Integration System Design Applications Examples of Applications: • CCTT: MM, SAF, AAR, MCC, CGF, OC WS • AVCATT: MM, SAF, and SAF PVD Manned Sims, SAF, Etc. • Minimize external interface changes • Implement wrapping layer for each system • Support swapping between legacy SNE and ERC • Test by comparison and partial integration • Specialized services, unique to each SAF • Ex: path planning, cover and conceal • Majority of legacy functionality retained • Terrain data accessed thru ERC • Modify legacy software to operate on ERC-based data Legacy Services Services that relied on CTDB or MrTDB ERC New capabilities • Hidden from legacy services via Virtual C API OTF Common Database

13. OneSAF Extensions for ERC Integration • Created a virtual API to add virtual functionality to ERC Component • Environment Data Model (EDM) contains all of the features required for virtual simulations • Added the attributes needed to the EDM to support the virtual environment • Subseted EDM to minimize OTF size • Coordinated all efforts with the OneSAF ERC Team

14. OneSAF Integration PurposePOC Chris Marino marinoc@se-core.net • Provide OneSAF as SAF and CGF components in AVCATT and CCTT Virtual Training Systems • Provide Additional OneSAF capabilities to AVCATT and CCTT systems • COE Behaviors • Add System Level Capabilities to OneSAF • Voice Communications
