Simulation Toolkit for Multiple Forces and Sides

"Today's constructive simulations do not possess the ability to represent multiple Forces and Sides with the flexibility required for today's threat and coalition forces. Gnosys, with SAIC as a team partner will leverage its over 10 years of experience inconstructive simulations to develop a toolkit for Multiple Forces and Sides that offers users the option of combining new characteristics which until now, only programmers could accomplish. The Gnosys team will design and build a Java/C++ Windows-basedprototype simulation toolkit in support of WARSIM and embedded in OneSAF that allows novel configurations of Forces and Sides. By using a Graphical User Interface (GUI), the non-programmer user can specify combinations of tactics techniques andprocedures, task organizations and weapons platforms. The anticipated results of the proposed approach are:1)Greatly improve the ability to represent multiple Forces and Sides not only for WARSIM but also for many other simulations.2)The creation of new Tactics, Techniques and Procedures, Task Organizations and Platforms rapidly by state of the art graphical user interfaces (GUIs) at the appropriate level of detail for the echelon by non-programmers.3)Reduction in labor for encoding required to provide simulations with multiple Forces and Sides.4)Reuse of legacy code in expanding Forces and Sides representations.5)Reduce the technical risks, costs and time associated with Computer Generated Forc
