Director J7 Vision We will maintain interoperability with our coalition and interagency partners.
DD J7 Joint and Coalition Warfighting Mission DD J7 JCW 100 Day Plan Coalition Integration. Joint Warfighters will continue to operate as part of both standing and ad hoc Coalition Forces. Coalition integration is an embedded aspect of everything we do. We will take full advantage of our unique opportunity to collaborate, train, and develop capability with our Coalition partners. “On behalf of the CJCS, the Deputy Director J7 Joint and Coalition Warfighting supports the training and development of Joint, interagency and multinational capabilities in order to meet the present and future operational needs of the Joint and Coalition force.”
M&S Architecture Objectives Provide a production level Live, Virtual and Constructive (LVC) architecture that can support Joint, Coalition and Service level training exercises at reduced cost Capitalize on existing capabilities and it must support immediate exercise requirements as well as long range goals 2) Provide a useful technical specification to support efforts across the training community Enable Home Station LVC Training Support Cross-Service Training Support Coalition Training

Challenges with Current M&S Approach • Federation becoming increasingly large and unmanageable • Costs increasing to upgrade existing and new federates • Resource-intensive integration of new federates and support • Tightly-coupled simulations • Bridges and gateways often required to integrate new and emerging technologies • Many redundancies and inconsistencies in data representation
Next-Generation M&S Capability • Rapidly utilize real-world source data • Cloud-based Rapid Data Generation (RDG) and distribution capability • Support operational Courses Of Actions (COA) development • Support Concept Development with Training • Make simulations smarter / more capable • Open Architecture Principles • Navigate terrain / interpret physical environment and effects • Attempt to apply orders more effectively • Allow faster than real-time simulation without intervention • Dynamic Intelligent Control Agent (scalable in cloud) • Reduce role-player dependency • Abstract User Interfaces to lower the barrier to use • Invoke only services needed by user • On demand access to scenario repositories • Users interact with common terms and symbols (Military & Civilian systems) • Interact with C2 systems
Fundamental Precepts • Apply Open Architecture Principles • Provide incremental yearly deliveries with the ability to roll back to a previous year’s increment. • Interoperability is Not Free • Provide Central Management / Governance • Synergy and efficiencies gained by aligning current efforts • Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Prototype • Using JTLS, JCATS, JLOD and VBS2 • Demonstrate Operational, Tactical & Virtual/Gaming Training Capabilities • US Forces Korea (KORCOM) project • Rapid Data Generation (RDG) project • NATO Training Federation (NTF) Objectives (MSG-106) • SEESIM Experiment (FY12)
HLA 1516 Evolved Terms of Reference • Dynamic Link Compatibility – That means federates can switch which RTI they use without recompiling/relinking their application. • Modular FOMs – Modular FOMs allow federation developers to break up their object model into useful parts (called FOM Modules). Then each federate only needs to know about the FOM Modules it uses. • Update Rate Reduction – Allows federates to tell the RTI they can only handle data updates below a certain rate. This allows update rate constrained federates to participate in busy federations without bogging down. • Better Fault Tolerance – HLA now has a mechanism for notifying Federates when another Federate becomes disconnected from the network. It means when something goes wrong, everyone will understand what went wrong quickly. • WEB Services API (WSDL) - The HLA Standard now defines a Web Service Description Language (WSDL) “binding”. This is similar to the C++, or Java bindings, but for the Web. • Based on the WSDL code, it is possible to generate code in different programming languages. It is transparent to a federation whether a specific federate uses the C++, Java or WSDL API. • Major benefits of the WSDL API include the support for numerous newer and older languages as well as the ease of deployment across wide area networks. • The major long term benefit of the WSDL API is that it promotes and supports the concept of simulations as readily available services provided within and between enterprises.
