A Comparison of the WARSIM Object Model with Army Command and Control Data Models
2002
Abstract : This document was prepared under the Task Order Object Oriented C2 Models for the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence (C31), in support of specific requirements identified by Department of the Army, Office of the Chief Information Officer (CIO/G-6). It was performed in response to a task objective to assess the alignment of data representations between representative Army C41 and modeling and simulation (M&S) systems. Interoperability between Command Control Communications Computers and Intelligence (C41) and Modeling and Simulation (M&S) systems is one of the greatest challenges to the M&S community today. Simulations are a cost-effective component of Army force training and provide testing environments for new systems. Simulations fill a void created when exercises are impractical thereby increasing warfighter preparedness. But training on C41 systems requires an interface between these systems and the simulation system. To use simulations with C41 systems the Army has been developing point-to-point software interlaces. These ad hoc interfaces have failed to yield insights into C41/M&S interoperability. Lacking such insights each software interface is a largely independent effort that wastefully re-implements portions of previous interfaces.
