Abstract

The Air Force envisions an integrated, common modeling and simulation (M&S) environment that will be accessed by analysts, warfighters, developers, and testers supporting the range of Air Force tasks, from determining requirements through conducting operations. This paper summarizes trends in the new vision for M&S and in the simulation technology that can be employed to implement the simulation systems of the future. Joint M&S standards will provide key advanced technologies for future simulation applications. The Joint Modeling and Simulation System (J-MASS) is a key ingredient in these new technologies and is envisioned as the modeling system for the development, acquisition, and test and evaluation process
