Submarine Automated Simulation (SubAutoSim)

There is strong requirement to field an interactive simulation environment that will model tactical and environmental entities in real time and enable goal-directed scenario generation. This capability is especially desirable in system integration, testing, certification, training and life-cycle support activities. 21st Century Systems, Incorporated (21CSI) proposes to leverage our extensive expertise in command and control decision support and simulation and produce a state-of-the-art submarine simulation system for Virginia Class SSN crew training as well as Non-Propulsion Electronics System development. We call our concept the Submarine Automated Simulation (SubAutoSim). SubAutoSim is an intelligent agent-driven simulation environment and intuitive situational awareness client application that allows the user to rapidly build a simulation situation and to inject scenario changes mid-simulation in order to improve realism for systems development and training activities. Intelligent agent controlled components provide the capability for goal-driven entities. The client application will include advanced visualization with 2D and 3D components and a multiple user interface capability including voice, mouse, and joystick. The SubAutoSim concept also includes an intuitive scenario builder that allows rapid scenario development and scenario injects during execution.
