  June 1998 Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council
  (EAPC) ministerial The United States has a
  three-part proposal for building among nations
  this enhanced education and training framework

  Studies Institutes

• PfP Simulation Network

• Cooperative Network of PfP Training Centers

On 24-25 April, 1999 the NATO and EAPC Heads of

Education and Training Program composed of these
three initiatives

  procedures, and the respective responsibilities
  of the participants regarding their collaboration
  and operation of a PfP Simulation Network.

• To establish ... mutual support in the
  development of an Internet-based website to
  support the work of the PfP Consortium of Defense
  Academies and Security Studies Institutes.

the participants intend to conduct joint
activities to demonstrate how a website can
enhance security cooperation among many nations.

24
Capabilities and Successes

• A fully cooperative working environment with the
  Services.
• Supported the full range of joint and Service
  tasks and conditions required to demonstrate
  rapid decisive operations.
• Largest and most complex federation of
  simulations (42 simulations and 9 stand-alones
  running on 300 computers).
• Fully integrated joint and Service C4I systems as
  well as experimental C4I systems.
• Distributed across 12 locations (17 counting C4I)
  including ships at sea.

25
Capabilities and Successes

• Maintained 100 federation availability over 3
  weeks running 24 x 7.
• 32,000 entities active at any one time.
• 400 different types of platforms, 600 different
  types of munitions 110,000 weapon-target
  pairings tested.
• Success based on a robust spiral development
  effort with detailed integration and
  comprehensive testing.

26
Top-Level Architecture
27
MC02 Federation Design

• Services selected the best simulations to
  represent their capabilities. USJFCOM funded
  improvements and integration using the High Level
  Architecture.
• First large, complex use of HLA. We have proved
  that HLA will support a large event.
• Requirement driven build process. Some ideas are
  too late We concentrated on high priority
  capabilities.
• All simulations have adopted some change. This
  is a significant leave-behind to support future
  service events.

28
MS Lessons Learned

• Early requirements definition was key to the
  successful federation of a diverse set of
  simulations.
• Critical technical decisions were deferred until
  a clear path was understood.
• Management exercised an extremely flat hierarchy
  for planning, design, and implementation.
• Early articulation of Integration Milestone
  events and spirals with the objectives for each
  was essential.

29
MS Lessons Learned

• Planned, continuous IVV was integral to the test
  environment.
• An independent testing agent ensured the
  simulations performed to standard.
• Centralized integration and testing was essential
  to supporting distributed execution.
• Above all, success is primarily due to a
  world-class development team.

30
SISO Level Challenges

• Terrain larger scale a-n-d higher fidelity
• Political, Military, Economic, Social,
  Information, Infrastructure (PMESII) capability
• Composability vertical and horizontal
• Adaptive behaviors
• Entity resolution with fewer operators
