Intelligent controllers for battlefield simulations
- and others
This is the final report of a three-year, Laboratory-Directed Research and Development (LDRD) project at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). This project involved research in the area of warfighting simulation technology and methods. In the first year our emphasis was to produce a prototype repository for simulation software objects and simulation execution executives in the context of an integrated theater missile defense problem. This provided a necessary precursor to the detailed development. In the second year more detailed and complete environments. In the second year more detailed and complete development of composable simulation software was undertaken. An object description language was developed, an object composition architecture was developed and implemented, and a prototyping test bed was produced to assess the technical concepts and as a demonstration tool for programmatic activities. In the third and final year it became apparent that the representation of intelligent entities, specifically those that fulfill command and control functions in warfighting systems, was a challenging and serious technical shortcoming of all existing approaches to simulation of warfare. 10 refs.
