“It is the last lesson of modern science, that the highest simplicity of structure is produced, not by few elements, but by the highest complexity.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Goethe; or, the Writer”

“Life was simple before World War II. After that, we had systems.”

DefinitionsDefinitions Model

A physical, mathematical, or otherwise logical representation of a system, entity, phenomenon, or process.

Simulation A method for implementing a model over time.

Modeling and Simulation (M&S) The use of models, including emulators, prototypes,

simulators, and stimulators, either statically or over time, to develop data as a basis for making managerial or technical decisions. The terms "modeling" and "simulation" are often used interchangeably.

Vision for DoD TransformationVision for DoD Transformation

“The two truly transforming things might be in information technology and information operating and networking…connecting things in ways that they function totally differently than they had previously.

“And if that’s possible…then possibly the single most transforming thing in our Force will not be a weapon system, but a set of interconnections and a substantially enhanced capability because of that awareness.”

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 9 August 2001

The Navy Modeling & Simulation Standards

ProjectSupported by Government and Industry

ADVOCATE: M&S

Community Outreach and Education Program.

NOMINATE: Identify

the need for Navy

M&S Standards and

Best Practices.

EVALUATE: Technical Review by a team of M&S experts with feedback from M&S Community.

The Navy M&S Community and

Industry are invited and

encouraged to nominate M&S

standards (including protocols,

techniques and processes) that

will support the use and reuse of

Navy models, simulations, and

data. The steps within the Navy’s

M&S Standards Process focus on

three key activities: Nominate,

Evaluate and Advocate Navy

M&S standards. Essential to these

key elements are an automated

web tool suite; facilitated support

to address and surmount

challenges; and M&S experts to

review, leverage and refine

appropriate standards.

Standards reflect a consensus about shared knowledge and experience that is economically beneficial to a community of interest.

Key enabler of efficiency and optimization in the development of simulation systems.

Open standards create a competitive marketplace for vendors on a level playing field.

Killer of the stovepipe. They can spur, and benefit from, increased research. Standards do not stifle creativity – they are a platform on

which creativity builds. Without appropriate M&S/data standards, we have

chaos!

ComposabilityComposability Composability is the ability to put together a piece of

software from several components. This is an essential property for building large and complex systems as it enables modularization and separation of concerns.

E.g. Legos Interchangeable parts Local area networks Object oriented programming Java Beans

Draft Goals for Navy M&S StandardsDraft Goals for Navy M&S Standards

To enable the Navy Mission and Vision by aligning M&S Development, Identification, Evaluation, and Advocacy through standards.

To improve structure and discipline in the Modeling and Simulation Community by inculcating architectural concepts, ensuring the common use of architectures, and fostering interoperability among architectures.

 Provide standards for the composability of Naval M&S activities.

Provide standards for the content and the description of content of Naval M&S and related data.

To improve modeling and simulation business practices by identifying best practices and standards for the acquisition, execution, and employment of modeling and simulation tools.

Component models developed for one program are “plug compatible” with models developed for other programs (I.e. pay once)

Corollary: Modeling content built for one phase of weapon development is usable in all subsequent phases of weapon development

Corollary: Technology, acquisition, operational, etc decisions are based on consistent model results

Confidence in undersea weapon models is high because each component model is developed according to a standard specification (I.e. interface and structure), tested according to a standard process, and integrated into requirement-specific simulation tools according to standard practices.

Content developers are free to focus on content and to innovate “on top of standards” unfettered by peripheral (I.e. non-content) concerns.

A Modeling and Simulation Resource Repository (MSRR) compliant “card catalog” (meta-data) of undersea weapon models, environments, and threats is available to the entire weapons enterprise.
