Distributed Real-Time Simulation and Network Monitoring Capability

Peerless Technologies and SAIC as teammates have intend to provide a uniform yet extensible virtual platform for potentially, any current or emerging Grid infrastructure, to provide the Department of Defense (DoD) with a trusted and real-time universal reign over the Global Information Grid (GIG). In order to develop an open-source integrated system, capable of handling GIG feedback, including the capability to manage, monitor and disseminate the flow of inward intelligence data in particular, network health related parameters. Our team will design and develop a methodology and test plan for handling the real-time monitoring of LVC and network components in a geographically distributed secure simulation environment and a proof-of-feasibility demonstration of key enabling concepts of the GIG-UI/Portal (Global Information Grid-User-Interface/Portal). Based on cutting-edge open-source technologies available, our team envisions the provision of indispensable support to any current or future national security related endeavors partaken by the DoD. Considered as immediate aspirations for this effort, Research and development will concentrate on novel mechanisms, methodologies, and advanced collaboration technology to monitor the health of distributed simulation networks that include live, virtual and constructive components. BENEFIT: Since network monitoring describes the use of a system that constantly monitors a computer network, commercialization applications of this R&D endeavor can be beneficial to almost any organization that can utilize this type of monitoring. Specifically, organizations that depend on distributive networks.
