C4I-Simulation Interoperability Using the DII COE and HLA
نویسندگان
چکیده
Technologies and methods have been developed within C4I systems that permit them to function as federates using the High Level Architecture (HLA). The HLA Runtime Infrastructure (RTI) has been shown to run successfully on C4I system hardware that is based on the Defense Information Infrastructure Common Operational Environment (DII COE). The most prominent example to date has been the operation of the RTI with the Global Command and Control System (GCCS) and GCCS/Maritime that both utilize the DII COE. The GCCS HLA interface has been used successfully with simulations such as the Joint Theater Level Simulation (JTLS), the Navy Simulation System (NSS), and the Pegasus Federation. These federations span the range of potential military applications from training, to experimentation, planning, and course of action (COA) analysis. This paper provides an overview of the various federation applications in which GCCS has been used to date, and also discusses the benefits of using HLA and the DII COE to improve C4I-Simulation interoperability.

C4I to M&S interoperability is currently facilitated by software interfaces established between specific systems. The development of C4I to M&S interfaces has not been considered one of the primary design requirements for either type of system. This has led to systemic problems in using M&S systems to support C4I system testing, training & experimentation. The Army is addressing these interoper...
