The objective of this effort is to define key technical requirements/issues, develop a design, implement the design, and produce, integrate and demonstrate a prototype composite mission simulator capable of supporting low to medium fidelity real-time operation for electronic combat evaluations in the Integrated Defensive Avionics Laboratory (IDAL). QuesTech proposes to harness the latest in analysis and integration technology by applying object oriented design paradigms to produce a design which incorporates flexibility and standardization to effectively and efficiently meet the requirements of IDAL as well as other applications. QuesTech will maximize the flexibility in the design by implementing standards such as those developed for Joint Modeling and Simulation System (J-MASS) while applying innovative technologies such as Object Broker to further insure the applicability of the developed system to a broad range of applications. The developed system will support the full range of composite mission simulator technologies. The integration technology developed as a result of this effort, will provide an integration tool set that can be utilized to address integration, fidelity management, and legacy system problems for both government and commercial simulation, training and engineering analysis professionals. The resulting capability will reflect the optimum integration of technologies based on a thorough trade-off analysis and the incorporation of critical technologies to support future maintainability and fidelity management thus ensuring a design which is implementable and cost effective.
